Supporting documents for the "Hands-On MCP: Connect Anything to AI" workshop at Future Product Days 2025.
What you'll need to follow this workshop
- A laptop with an internet connection
- A GitHub account (free, pro, edu, or enterprise)
- VS Code with GitHub Copilot installed
- A Claude account (free works, pro is better for experimentation)
- A Zapier account (free is sufficient)
- A healthy disrespect for the sanctity of technology (and your computer)
🧑💻 Hands-On Exercise #1: Give Claude Desktop (Almost) Unlimited Powers with Zapier MCP Server
Step 0: Join the Undestroyers Slack for experimentation
Visit this invite link and go through the process to join: https://join.slack.com/t/undestroyers/shared_invite/zt-3eiyedlb4-8mh4Pg84dFOvQHkmrWv6Rw
Step 1: Set up a new MCP Server in Zapier
- Go to mcp.zapier.com
- Press the "+ New MCP Server" button
- Under "MCP Client" use the drop-down to select "Claude"
- Give your MCP server a recognizable name like "My Custom Zapier MCP Server"
Step 2: Add Slack tools
- In the new MCP Server, press the "+ Add tool" button to add tools.
- Search for Slack
- Under Slack, select "Find Public Channel"
- Go through the authentication loop (Note: you must have Slack open and be logged in for this)
- Repeat 1-3 and add "Send Channel Message"
[!NOTE] Most (if not all) tools require some form of authentication, so connect to services you already have an account for.
Step 3: Add the MCP server to Claude
- In Zapier MCP, switch to the "Connect" tab at the top
- Follow the step-by-step instructions on the page
- Go through the OAuth flow when prompted
- In Claude, click the "Search and tools" button in the chat window (looks like two faders)
- Make sure "Zapier" shows up as an active tool (not greyed out)
If Zapier is not active:
- In Claude, go to Settings -> Connectors
- Try connecting Zapier again
[!NOTE] If you're using a brand new Zapier account, you may have to wait for Claude to be able to connect. This appears to be an anti-abuse feature.
Step 4: Test the MCP server
If Zapier is active in Claude:
- Start a new chat
- Submit a prompt similar to this:
Send a message in the #future-product-days channel saying "Success! (this message is from [insert your name])" or similar.
- Wait and see what happens!
🧑💻 Hands-On Exercise #3: Build your own MCP Server
- Clone this repo to your computer
- Open VS Code to this project
- Go to the
/simple-server/folder - Open
README.md - Follow the instructions
