Read tickets, customers, stock and invoices; add confirmed internal ticket notes. Hosted by usefulapi: connect it to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client.
Turn on the RepairDesk connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.
For repair shop teams managing tickets, customers, parts and invoices in RepairDesk.
Find a ticket by keyword, then review its customer, device, status, notes and line items before responding to a customer.
Read appointments with customer, device and assignment details to prepare for the next repair intake.
Look up an item by name or SKU, review available stock and inspect its condition and storage location options.
Find an invoice, review its details and check the outstanding amount and paid flag before discussing payment with a customer.
Review the selected ticket and note text, then append an internal note after explicit confirmation. Inspect the ticket notes before retrying an uncertain result.
Changes dataThe login page asks for your RepairDesk API key.
Find the key in Store → General Settings → Other Information → API KEY. Your RepairDesk subscription must include API access. Reset the API key in RepairDesk to revoke this connection. RepairDesk documents API-key deprecation as expected, with no published date; its OAuth clients are store-specific. Billing and usage are per API key: resetting or replacing it creates a separate identity. Requested business/customer data passes through UsefulAPI to your chosen AI client and its model provider. This is an independent integration.
Team and Enterprise: an Owner adds the connector for the organization first.
No Add custom MCP server option? It depends on your account or workspace settings: see OpenAI's guide.
Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:
Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"repairdesk": {
"url": "https://repairdesk.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
} Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"repairdesk": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://repairdesk.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
} Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:
Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your RepairDesk API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
| Plan | Price | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 50 tool calls / month |
| Proper API key | $9/mo · $90/yr | 10,000 tool calls / month |
| Pro+per API key | $39/mo · $390/yr | 100,000 tool calls / month |
Each paid plan covers this RepairDesk server only. Ask your AI to run repairdesk_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with repairdesk_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with repairdesk_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by RepairDesk. The server calls the RepairDesk API with your own RepairDesk access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.
Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.
The login page asks for your RepairDesk API key. See Before you connect for where to find it.
No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your RepairDesk API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the RepairDesk API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in RepairDesk.
Yes, if you approve it. 1 of the 17 RepairDesk tools can create or change data. The other 16 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.
The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with 10,000 tool calls / month. Pro+ costs $39/mo or $390/yr, with 100,000 tool calls / month. Each subscription covers this RepairDesk server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run repairdesk_usage_status to see how many calls you used.
Ask the AI to run repairdesk_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. After you confirm, your existing subscription changes in place, keeps its billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. To cancel, run repairdesk_cancel_subscription. Your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period.
Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with repairdesk_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.
Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.
This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
