HelpSpot for AI agents
HelpSpot is a customer support platform for managing requests, staff workflows, and saved responses, giving support teams a shared queue with time tracking and reporting on ticket volume. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in HelpSpot.
Search open requests
Search requests for a keyword to find a customer's open ticket about a specific issue.
Create a new request
Create a support request from an incoming customer message so it enters the queue.
Update a request with a saved response
Attach a saved response to a request and update its status after review.
10 HelpSpot actions, graded by risk.
Every HelpSpot action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

HelpSpot in three steps.
- 01Your users connect HelpSpotThey add their HelpSpot api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, and writes like “create Request” can wait for the user to approve.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls HelpSpot through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('helpspot', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // create_request destructive: 'deny', }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How HelpSpot connects.
Users add their HelpSpot api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
The same HelpSpot connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- API key
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan
Use HelpSpot from any agent.
HelpSpot and Arc0, answered.
Can I use HelpSpot with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect HelpSpot to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the HelpSpot actions you allow.
How do users connect HelpSpot?
Users add their HelpSpot api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
Which HelpSpot actions can my agent take?
10 in total: 6 read, 4 write and 0 destructive, such as “create Request”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I make my agent read-only in HelpSpot?
Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the HelpSpot policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.
Can my own backend call HelpSpot too?
Yes. The same HelpSpot connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug HelpSpot into your agent.
Your users connect HelpSpot once, under your brand. Your agent gets 10 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
