# Connect Capsule CRM and The Old Reader

When **New case** fires in [Capsule CRM](https://apiant.ai/connections/capsule-crm), your agent runs **Update item** in [The Old Reader](https://apiant.ai/connections/the-old-reader), or **New item** in The Old Reader to **Add Task** in Capsule CRM. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

## What do you want Capsule CRM and The Old Reader to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

###

### What can your agent do in The Old Reader when something happens in Capsule CRM?

Any of The Old Reader's 12 actions, including Update folder, Update item, Update subscription and Add subscription. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

Yes. When something happens in The Old Reader, your agent can act in Capsule CRM too. This page covers both directions: The Old Reader's triggers and Capsule CRM's actions are listed here as well.

###

No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.

###

### Can my AI client use Capsule CRM and The Old Reader without building an automation?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
