Connect in 2 minutes

Get your API key at https://cotlet.dev/app and export it as COTLET_API_KEY.

ChatGPT

Settings → Apps → add connector URL https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1/connect, then sign in with Cotlet.dev. No API key needed.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http cotlet https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1 --header "Authorization: Bearer $COTLET_API_KEY"

Cursor

Copy .cursor/mcp.json from this repo into your project:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cotlet": {
      "url": "https://cotlet.dev/mcp/v1",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${COTLET_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run it locally (stdio)

This repo is a real MCP server. It speaks MCP over stdio, lists its picdrop tools without any key, and forwards every tool call to the hosted Cotlet.dev server. The hosted URL above stays the recommended way. Use this when your client only starts local servers.

Run the included Python module with Python 3.10 or later:

python3 picdrop_agent.py serve

Or with Docker:

docker build -t picdrop-mcp .
docker run -i --rm -e COTLET_API_KEY picdrop-mcp

Tools: picdrop_guide, picdrop_status, picdrop_open, picdrop_read, picdrop_click, picdrop_type, picdrop_close. Without COTLET_API_KEY a tool call answers: "Set COTLET_API_KEY. Get a key at https://cotlet.dev/app".

Command line

Python 3.10+, with no third-party runtime dependencies. Clone this repository and run:

export COTLET_API_KEY="your-key"
python3 picdrop_agent.py connect   # ready config for Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT
