How to connect another assistant
Any assistant that supports remote MCP servers can connect. Add a remote MCP server with the Streamable HTTP transport and the link https://mcp.chatfuel.com/panel, then sign in to Chatfuel. If the assistant can't sign in through the browser, use a CLI token instead, as described in Chatfuel MCP sign-in, read-only access and CLI token.
What can I ask the assistant?
Write in your own words. Examples:
- "Show me my bots and which ones have AI turned on."
- "Add an FAQ: we are open Monday to Saturday, 9:00 to 18:00."
- "Reply to comments on my latest Instagram post and invite people to DM us."
- "Why isn't my bot replying on WhatsApp?"
More requests by task are in Chatfuel MCP example prompts.
Common issues
The assistant can see my bots but can't change anything
You probably turned on Read-only on the Chatfuel consent screen. Disconnect Chatfuel in the assistant, connect again, and leave Read-only off.
Can the assistant send a broadcast or turn the AI off everywhere?
No. Sending broadcasts and turning the AI off for all channels are done in the Chatfuel dashboard.
Something else doesn't work
Fixes for sign-in errors, missing tools and a bot that stays silent are in Chatfuel MCP troubleshooting.
