Set up WebLineup in ChatGPT and Codex

Copy the commands or follow the menu paths below to connect WebLineup to ChatGPT, Codex, Claude and Claude Code, then find businesses without websites and generate their sites from a chat.

Last updated

Your server address

Every client below needs the same address. There are no API keys: you sign in to WebLineup in your browser and approve access.

  1. Copy the WebLineup MCP server address:

    MCP server URL

    https://weblineup.com/mcp

Claude Code (terminal)

Two commands, then approve access in your browser.

  1. Add WebLineup as an HTTP MCP server. Run in your terminal:

    Terminal

    claude mcp add --transport http weblineup https://weblineup.com/mcp

  2. Start Claude Code and open the MCP panel:

    Inside Claude Code

    /mcp

  3. Select weblineup, choose Authenticate, sign in to WebLineup in the browser that opens, and press Allow access. Prefer the shell? Run:

    Terminal (alternative)

    claude mcp login weblineup

  4. Check it is connected, then try a prompt such as "How much of my monthly quota is left?":

    Terminal

    claude mcp list

Good to know: Add --scope user to make it available in every project, or --scope project to write it to .mcp.json for your team (each person still signs in with their own WebLineup account). Remove it with: claude mcp remove weblineup. Sign out with: claude mcp logout weblineup.

Codex (CLI and IDE extension)

Add the server, log in once, and Codex can call WebLineup's tools.

  1. Add WebLineup as a streamable HTTP MCP server. Run in your terminal:

    Terminal

    codex mcp add weblineup --url https://weblineup.com/mcp

  2. Sign in. A browser opens: sign in to WebLineup and press Allow access:

    Terminal

    codex mcp login weblineup

  3. Confirm it is listed, or type /mcp inside the Codex terminal UI:

    Terminal

    codex mcp list

  4. Using the IDE extension instead? Follow this path, enter the name weblineup, choose Streamable HTTP, paste the address, then Restart extension and Authenticate:

    Settings (gear menu)MCP serversAdd server

Good to know: Prefer a config file? Add this to ~/.codex/config.toml and run codex mcp login weblineup: [mcp_servers.weblineup] url = "https://weblineup.com/mcp"

Claude (claude.ai, desktop and mobile)

Add WebLineup as a custom connector. Available on Free (one custom connector), Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans.

  1. Open the connectors page in Claude:

    CustomizeConnectorsAdd custom connector

  2. Name it WebLineup, paste the server address, and add it:

    Server URL

    https://weblineup.com/mcp

  3. Click Connect on the new WebLineup connector, sign in to WebLineup, and press Allow access.

  4. In a chat, turn it on for that conversation, then ask for what you need:

    + (chat menu)ConnectorsWebLineup

Good to know: Team and Enterprise: an Owner first adds it once at Organization settings > Connectors > Add > Custom > Web (name + server address). Members then go to Customize > Connectors > WebLineup > Connect and sign in with their own WebLineup account. To remove it: Customize > Connectors > WebLineup > Remove.

ChatGPT (chatgpt.com)

Add WebLineup as a custom MCP server with OAuth. Custom MCP servers depend on your ChatGPT plan and workspace settings; on Business, Enterprise and Edu an admin may need to allow them first.

  1. Open ChatGPT's plugins page and add your own MCP server:

    chatgpt.com/plugins+Add custom MCP server

  2. Name it WebLineup and add a short description (for example: find businesses without websites, build preview sites, track outreach).

  3. Under Connection, choose Public endpoint and paste the server address (it must include /mcp):

    Server URL

    https://weblineup.com/mcp

  4. Set Authentication to OAuth. Accept the warning (I understand and want to continue), then choose Create as a plugin.

  5. ChatGPT sends you to WebLineup: sign in and press Allow access. Then start a new chat and enable the WebLineup plugin for it.

Good to know: OpenAI renames and moves these menus from time to time; look for the option to add your own MCP server. After WebLineup adds or changes tools, open the plugin page and press Refresh, then start a new chat.

Check that it works

In any of the clients above, ask: "How much of my WebLineup quota is left this month?" The assistant should call get_account_usage and report your plan and remaining leads and sites. Then try: "Find 5 plumbers in Austin, TX and tell me which have no website." It will first show how many leads the search would use and wait for your yes.

Disconnect or start over

Remove the server in the client (claude mcp remove weblineup, codex mcp remove weblineup, or the Remove button in Claude and ChatGPT), then open Dashboard, then AI, and press Disconnect so WebLineup revokes the access token as well. Reconnecting later replaces the old connection.

What ChatGPT can do with WebLineup

WebLineup is software for agencies and freelancers who sell websites to local businesses. Connected to ChatGPT, it turns a chat into a prospecting desk: you describe the kind of business and the place, ChatGPT calls WebLineup to search Google Maps business data, and the results come back with phone numbers and a label for each business - no website, website down, or has a working website.

From there the same conversation can take a promising business through the rest of the pipeline: generate an AI preview website, draft the first message, and record what happened. ChatGPT does the conversation and the writing; WebLineup does the searching, the site building and the record-keeping, under your own account, plan and monthly quota.

  • Find 15 hair salons in Dallas, TX and tell me which have no website.
  • If they all have websites, fetch the next batch.
  • Generate a website for the best one and draft a short friendly email with the preview link.
  • Mark them as CONTACTED and note that I emailed today.

What it can and cannot do with your account

  • It can search, read your businesses, prospects and sites, generate sites, update prospect status and notes, and draft outreach.
  • Searches, extra result batches and site generation use your monthly quota, so the assistant first shows what will be used and waits for your yes.
  • It cannot send messages, delete sites, change your plan, or see your password or payment details.
  • It only sees your own agency's data. Disconnecting ends its access immediately.

Troubleshooting

  • "Subscription required": the account has no active plan. Subscribe in Dashboard, then Settings, then Billing.
  • "Quota exceeded": you have used this period's leads or sites; the message says which. Quotas reset on your billing date.
  • Sign-in loops back to the login page: finish signing in to WebLineup in the same browser, then retry the connection.
  • Tools missing or outdated: refresh the plugin in ChatGPT (or run /mcp reconnect all in Claude Code) and start a new chat.
