What you can do with Mailchimp

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Mailchimp API rate limits

Mailchimp uses concurrency-based rate limiting (max 10 simultaneous connections), not a fixed per-minute rate. A 429 error is returned when the limit is reached. Use the Batch endpoint for high-volume operations.

These are the limits Mailchimp documents, not ones LiveContext measured. They can change and often depend on your plan, so check the Mailchimp documentation for current values.

Use Mailchimp from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Mailchimp in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Mailchimp operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
