No usage claims. Nobody has run this tool. The other tier is BENCH-TESTED, which means Andrew personally ran the tool on a stated date and cannot be bought at any price. Across the whole directory that count is 0. Vendor: [woodpecker.co](https://woodpecker.co) · entry id 02-woodpecker · source 02-engagement-outbound.md line 198 **What it does** Cold email and LinkedIn outreach automation tool with inbox rotation, adaptive sending, and centralized reply management. **AI features, separated from automation with an AI label on it** Vendor advertises an AI email writer (copy drafting) and AI interest-level detection that auto-sorts replies by engagement - both genuinely AI/LLM-adjacent but modest in scope versus competitors' "AI agent" claims. Inbox rotation and adaptive sending are plain automation. **RevOps role** Outbound email sequencing/deliverability layer; MCP access is bundled with API/webhook access as one paid add-on. **MCP server** - **Status bucket**: Official MCP - **Auth**: hosted OAuth-style flow (Claude-specific) or self-hosted Docker setup using a Woodpecker API key - **Parsed URLs**: 2 found in the mcp_url field The vendor ships and maintains the server itself. A wrapper built by Zapier, Composio or a similar third party does not count as official. The status was established on 2026-08-24 and has not been re-fetched since. mcp_status, verbatim from the file: official mcp_url, verbatim from the file: https://developers.woodpecker.co/docs/mcp/ (Claude-specific setup at https://developers.woodpecker.co/docs/mcp/connect-claude/) - [https://developers.woodpecker.co/docs/mcp/](https://developers.woodpecker.co/docs/mcp/) - [https://developers.woodpecker.co/docs/mcp/connect-claude/](https://developers.woodpecker.co/docs/mcp/connect-claude/) **Access gate** - **Gate bucket**: Paid, self-serve - **Can a solo operator reach it**: Yes, by paying, no sales call api_gate, verbatim from the file: paid **API documentation** No documentation URL recorded. 263 of 293 entries are in the same position. Blank is legal and it is published as blank. **GitHub health** Not measured. github_url, github_stars, github_last_commit and github_archived are null on every entry in this build. The refresh rail specced in SPEC section 7.2 has not been run. An unstamped star count is a lie, so nothing is shown rather than something stale. **Jobs it can do** - [Run an email sequence](../jobs/run-email-sequence.md) - [Send a LinkedIn message or connection request](../jobs/send-linkedin-message.md) - [Draft personalized outreach](../jobs/draft-personalized-outreach.md) A job tag means the vendor says the tool does this. It is not a test result, not proof the capability is reachable through the tool's MCP server, and not proof it is available on the gate this entry records. Tagged by machine-pass on 2026-08-25 against the closed 55 job vocabulary. 271 of 293 entries carry at least one tag; 827 tags are assigned in total. **Sources** - [https://woodpecker.co/pricing/](https://woodpecker.co/pricing/) - [https://developers.woodpecker.co/docs/mcp/](https://developers.woodpecker.co/docs/mcp/) 2 source URLs. Raw sources field, verbatim: https://woodpecker.co/pricing/, https://developers.woodpecker.co/docs/mcp/ **Notes, verbatim from the file** "Integrations, API, webhooks, MCP, CLI" is a single $20/month add-on available on top of any pricing tier - not enterprise-gated. Notable discovery gap: this server did not surface via GitHub/glama.ai search (which returned an unrelated "Woodpecker CI" project) - only found by checking the vendor's own site directly. **Provenance** - **Entry id**: 02-woodpecker - **Source file**: 02-engagement-outbound.md - **Source line**: 198 - **Tier**: RESEARCHED - **last_checked**: 2026-08-24 - **Data baked**: 2026-08-25 Every field above is rendered from directory.json exactly as the build produced it.
