Using Corsair, show me what you can do in U301 on my account, then run one read-only example and show me the result.
U301 tools and triggers
Tools are what your agent can do in U301 through Corsair's MCP server. Triggers are the U301 events a routine can start from.
Domains
- ActiveRead-only
Check whether a domain's DNS verification has completed, which is the step to poll after adding the CNAME
domains.active
- CreateWrite
Add a custom domain; the DNS CNAME still has to be created and verified before it serves links
domains.create
- DeleteDestructive
Remove a custom domain from the workspace
domains.delete
- GetRead-only
Read one domain's validity, archive state, slug length and redirect settings

Set the random slug length a domain uses, 3 to 10
domains.pathLength

Connect U301 in Corsair
Add your U301 API key once in Corsair. Corsair stores the credential encrypted and makes the U301 API calls for your agent, so it never goes into a prompt or a config file. Connect U301
If your link lets the agent add apps, you can skip this: it gives you a sign-in link the first time it needs U301. On a ChatGPT personal plan, connect U301 here first.

Add Corsair's MCP server to your agent
Every client uses the same address:
https://mcp.corsair.dev/mcpOpen Customize → Connectors → Add custom connector, paste the address, then select Connect.Add a custom MCP server with the address and choose OAuth. Personal plans get read tools only.Add to CursorOr add this to~/.cursor/mcp.json. Cursor opens Corsair to sign in the first time it connects.{ "mcpServers": { "corsair": { "url": "https://mcp.corsair.dev/mcp" } } }Run this, then run/mcpin Claude Code to sign in.claude mcp add --transport http corsair https://mcp.corsair.dev/mcpCodex, Gemini CLI, VS Code, Zed and other clients with OAuth sign-in work the same way. Clients without it, such as GitHub Copilot's coding agent, use a link's own address and an API key. Setup for every client

Sign in and choose what needs your approval
Your client opens Corsair to sign in. Pick a link: the apps your agent can use and a mode that decides what it may do without asking. In the default Cautious mode, U301's read and write operations run right away and its 2 destructive operations wait for your approval. Strict mode asks before every write and refuses destructive operations, and Read mode allows reads only.
FAQ
Install corsair and @corsair-dev/u301, add the U301 plugin, and connect with an API key. Then call methods like corsair.u301.api.analytics.audience() from your app. Corsair keeps each tenant isolated.
Yes. U301 requires an API key from your U301 account or developer dashboard. Create credentials with access that matches what you automate, then paste them into Corsair or connect through managed auth in Hub.
Yes. One Corsair client can hit U301, GitHub, Notion, Stripe, and the rest. Trigger U301 from a webhook, push updates to Slack, or chain actions across plugins. Same tenant context across integrations, plain TypeScript.
Teams use Corsair for create and manage branded short links, configure custom domains and their redirects, and read click analytics with U301. Common builds include sync jobs, admin tooling, and agents that call U301 APIs from your backend.
The SDK is open source. Self-host and you pay Corsair nothing for the integration layer. Hub bills for hosted auth and execution, not per U301 API call. Hub has a generous free tier. For hobby projects you can probably run the whole thing on free. Paid plans start to matter with more tenants or heavier traffic.
We maintain @corsair-dev/u301 in the open repo. When U301 ships API changes, upgrade the package. Your call sites stay typed. You should not need to rewrite the integration layer each time.
No. Corsair does not read your U301 data or hold individual access credentials. Credentials stay in your database. API calls run on your instance. We do not store U301 data on your behalf.
Yes. Add https://mcp.corsair.dev/mcp as a custom connector or MCP server in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, Codex or any client that supports remote MCP servers with OAuth sign-in, then sign in to Corsair. On ChatGPT personal plans, custom servers currently get read tools only.
Yes. Put U301 on a link in Strict mode and every write waits for your approval, while destructive actions are refused. The default Cautious mode asks only before the 2 destructive U301 operations. You can change a link's mode at hub.corsair.dev/me.
