Cocoon, inside your AI assistant.

Cocoon's MCP server plugs our AI tools directory, AI jobs board and daily AI news into Claude, Cursor, VS Code or any assistant that speaks MCP. Ask in your own words and your assistant looks it up here.

    In a Cocoon workshop
    
        
    Got a Studio session key? Your assistant can make images and videos too.
    
        
    Add your Cocoon Studio session key to the end of the URL and three more tools appear: studio_models, studio_generate and studio_jobs. Without a key they don't exist on the server at all.
    
        
    https://mycocoon.life/api/mcp?key=YOUR-SESSION-KEY
    
        
    
      
    
      
      
        
    • 200 credits per key. About $2 of generation, shared by everyone using that key through an assistant. It's its own allowance, separate from your personal Studio credits.
      • 
        
    • Your facilitator sees it. It shows in the session as "AI assistant (MCP)", and they can switch it off.
      • 
        
    • Files expire with the session. Your assistant gets view and download links that last as long as the session's files.
      • 
      
    
    
    
  
    

  
    
    
    
      
    Then just ask
    
      
    Things to try once it's connected.
    
      
    • Find three free AI tools for editing podcast audio, and tell me which is easiest for a beginner.
    • What junior AI or data jobs are open in Sri Lanka right now?
    • Summarise this week's AI news in five bullets.
    • Compare the freemium AI note-taking tools and pick one for a small team.
    • I'm a designer. Which AI image tools should I try first, and what do they cost?
    
    
    
  
    

  
    
    
    
      
    Questions
    
      
    Plainly answered.
    
      
    
      
    
        
        
    MCP, the Model Context Protocol, is a standard way for an AI assistant to use someone else's tools and data. Think of it as a plug: once Cocoon's server is plugged into your assistant, it can search our directory, jobs board and news by itself when your question needs them.
    
      
    
      
    
        
        
    The tools directory, jobs board and news are free, with no key and no sign-up. Add the URL and it works. Only the Cocoon Studio tools need a key: the session key from a Cocoon workshop.
    
      
    
      
    
        
        
    Only the search your assistant decides to send, such as "podcast editing" or "data analyst". It never sees the rest of your chat and it doesn't know who you are. Without a session key every tool only reads. With one, the only thing it can do besides is make images and videos in that session, within the key's 200 credits.
    
      
    
      
    
        
        
    Any assistant or editor that can add a remote MCP server over HTTP, including Claude Code, the Claude app's custom connectors, Cursor and VS Code. The steps for each are above.
    
      
    
      
    
        
        
    Studio stops starting new generations through the assistant and says how many credits are left, so your assistant can pick a cheaper model or tell you. Files already made keep working until the session's files expire. Your own credits in Studio are a separate allowance and are not touched.
    
      
    
      
    
        
        
    Up to 50 results per search, and a generous per-connection rate limit so one runaway script can't slow it down for everyone else.
    
      
    
      
    
        
        
    Yes. The same tools, jobs and news are a free JSON API at mycocoon.life/api/cocoon. Build Lab shows you how to call it from a page, and API Lab explains how an API and MCP differ.
