What do you want to automate with Outline?

Ask the assistant

You'll sign in before anything runs. What you typed comes with you.

Connect your AI client

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.

Questions

Outline, answered

Is there a Outline MCP server?

APIANT's MCP server at https://mcp.apiant.ai works with Outline. Add that address to any AI client that takes a remote MCP server and sign in once in your browser. Your client can then run Outline actions on demand, or have APIANT build, test and run automations that use Outline. Nothing to install.

What can start an automation from Outline?

Any of Outline's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New Collection, New Comment and New Document. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

What can your agent do in Outline?

Any of Outline's 32 actions, including Create Collection, Create Document, Update Collection and Update comment. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

Can I use Outline directly from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect your AI client to APIANT once and it works with Outline two ways. Ask it to do something in Outline once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running on its own. A one-off action uses your plan's tasks the same way an automation step does.

Do I need to write code against the Outline API?

No. APIANT connects to the Outline API for you, with your Outline API key. Describe what you want in plain language and your agent builds it on the Outline triggers and actions in the catalog. If you need an endpoint that is not there yet, your agent reads the Outline API documentation and adds it.

Which apps can Outline connect to?

Any app in the catalog; the list on this page pairs Outline with each of them. If the other app is missing, point your agent at its API documentation and it builds the connector.

What happens when something fails?

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

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
