Parsley MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol server that exposes buyer intent signals, MEDDIC qualification data, and lead intelligence from your Parsley account to AI assistants like Claude Desktop and Cursor.
What it does
Ask your AI assistant natural questions about your leads:
- "Which leads went hot this week?"
- "Show me the MEDDIC gaps for recent conversations"
- "Any high-intent visitors that nobody's followed up on?"
- "What are people asking that my chatbot can't answer?"
If you also have a CRM MCP connected (Attio, HubSpot, Salesforce, etc.), Claude can cross-reference automatically - finding hot leads with no CRM follow-up, prepping you for calls with full context from both systems.
Setup
1. Get your API key
Generate an API key at parsley.id/hub/api-keys. You need a Parsley account with the chatbot enabled.

"parsley": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@tryparsley/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"PARSLEY_API_KEY": "pk_live_your_key_here"
}
}
}
}
3. Configure Cursor
Add to your Cursor MCP settings (.cursor/mcp.json):

"mcpServers": {
"parsley": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@tryparsley/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"PARSLEY_API_KEY": "pk_live_your_key_here"

Access
get_analytics_summaryruns on every account- The other 7 tools and all 5 prompts require conversation balance - every new account gets 10 free conversations, then it is 25¢ each
See parsley.id/pricing.
Agencies
Every tool accepts an optional client parameter: pass a managed client's org id to query that client's data instead of your own. The API key owner must hold an admin-equivalent membership in the client org - validated server-side, so a key can never reach data its owner couldn't see in the dashboard.
