Review staffing, availability and leave; create or update shifts with confirmation. Hosted by usefulapi: connect it to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client.
Turn on the Workfeed connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.
For team managers who plan staffing and review department performance in Workfeed.
Review shifts by department and role to spot unassigned work before finalizing the rota.
Compare staff availability and leave for the scheduling period before deciding who can cover a shift.
Compare calculated department labor costs and revenue with stored daily targets and manual revenue records.
Create a shift after reviewing its staff member, role and exact times, or leave it unassigned. Publishing a shift cannot be undone through this connector.
Changes dataRead the current shift, review the proposed changes and update it with explicit confirmation. Keep its original dates and inspect uncertain outcomes before retrying.
Changes dataThe login page asks for your Workfeed company ID and Workfeed API key.
Requires Workfeed Pro+. Generate a dedicated key in Settings → Integrations → Workfeed API and copy its company ID. Paste the raw key without Bearer. Workfeed keys have full read/write access; this connector offers only documented reads and confirmed shift changes, with no deletes or employee writes. Scheduling staff fields omit national IDs, banking, tax, wages, emergency contacts and custom fields; free-text leave notes are omitted. Requested workforce/business data passes through UsefulAPI to your selected AI client and its model provider. Revoke this key in Workfeed integration settings to stop vendor access. Usage and billing are per Workfeed company, shared across its keys; rotating a key keeps that identity. 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": {
"workfeed": {
"url": "https://workfeed.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
} Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"workfeed": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://workfeed.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 Workfeed company ID and Workfeed 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 company | $9/mo · $90/yr | 10,000 tool calls / month |
| Pro+per company | $39/mo · $390/yr | 100,000 tool calls / month |
Each paid plan covers this Workfeed server only. Ask your AI to run workfeed_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 workfeed_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 workfeed_upgrade before then undoes the cancel.

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Workfeed. The server calls the Workfeed API with your own Workfeed 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 Workfeed company ID and Workfeed API key. See Before you connect for where to find them.
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 Workfeed company ID and Workfeed 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 Workfeed 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 Workfeed.
Yes, if you approve it. 2 of the 17 Workfeed tools can create or change data. The other 15 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 Workfeed server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run workfeed_usage_status to see how many calls you used.
Ask the AI to run workfeed_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 workfeed_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 workfeed_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.
