cotlet
cotlet_app_guide
How to work in an app by clicking in the user's Cloud Browser with Cotlet's browser tools: which browser to use for this workspace and the sign-in link, the method step by step, the app's screens, menus and actions, notes, and the app's dedicated tools when Cotlet has them. Call it before the first browser step in an app. Works for any web app; one outside Cotlet's catalog gets the general method. Free, no browser session. For Housecall Pro it covers these actions: Create job, Create estimate, Create invoice, Send invoice, List customers.
cotlet_apps
The apps of the user's workspace and whether each works now: the app account in the user's Cloud Browser (connected, signed out, signed in but not connected), and the one step the user has to take, with the console link. Free. Needs the user's Cotlet API key or sign-in.
cotlet_browser_click
Clicks element `element`, or point `x`, `y` of the screenshot; `double` double-clicks, `button: right` right-clicks. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers. Says when nothing changed. A link that would open a new tab opens in this one. Buttons that pay or buy, and sign-in and account pages, are refused.
cotlet_browser_close
Ends the browser session when the task is done: the browser keeps its cookies and sleeps, and the per-minute charge stops. Answers the session's minutes and credits.
cotlet_browser_download
Gets the file that clicking `element` (a download link or button) or opening `url` starts: answers its name, type, size and a link valid 15 minutes; CSV, JSON and other text files also as text.
cotlet_browser_drag
Drags from one element or point to another: a card between columns, a piece on a board, a slider's handle. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers.
cotlet_browser_evaluate
Runs a JavaScript function body on the page and answers what it returns, as JSON. Use it to extract data the page holds (a table, a list, attributes); act with the other tools. It cannot send requests, click, submit, or read cookies or storage; a filled field's value reads [hidden by Cotlet]. Example: return [...document.querySelectorAll('h2')].map(h => h.innerText)
cotlet_browser_fill_form
Fills several fields in one step: text fields take text, drop-downs an option's label, checkboxes, radios and switches true or false. Stops at the first field that fails and names those filled. Does not send the form: click its button after. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers.
cotlet_browser_find
Finds `text` on the whole current page, frames included: the elements whose label holds it, with their numbers, and each line of text that holds it. Use it instead of reading or scrolling a long page for one thing.
cotlet_browser_hover
Rests the pointer on an element or a point, to open a hover menu, a tooltip or a preview. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers.
cotlet_browser_navigate
Opens `url` in the current tab, or goes `history` back or forward. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers.
cotlet_browser_open
Starts the user's Housecall Pro Cloud Browser (a real Chrome on Cotlet, signed in to Housecall Pro as the user; use it for what the Housecall Pro tools do not cover) and opens `url`. Call it first. Only Housecall Pro pages open. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers. In Housecall Pro it serves these actions: Create job, Create estimate, Create invoice, Send invoice, List customers.
cotlet_browser_press
Presses a key on the focused element: Enter to send, Tab to the next field, Escape to close a pop-up, arrows in a list or slider, or one character (a site's shortcut). Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers.
cotlet_browser_read
The whole current page: its text (up to 20,000 characters) and a numbered list of its links, buttons, fields and other controls, open dialogs first. Use it on a new page or when a step's answer is not enough; `element` reads only inside one element (a dialog, a form, a list). Never returns field values, cookies or storage.
cotlet_browser_screenshot
A JPEG of the visible part of the page. Use it for boards, canvases, maps, charts and layout that the text does not show, then click or drag by `x`, `y` of the image.
cotlet_browser_scroll
Scrolls with the mouse wheel: `down` or `up` by `screens`, to `top` or `bottom`, until `element` is in view, or inside a panel or list (`inside`). Content that loads on scroll appears. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers.
cotlet_browser_select
Chooses `option` (its label as listed, or its value) in drop-down `element`. For a home-made drop-down, click it, then click the option. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers.
cotlet_browser_type
Types `text` into field `element`, replacing what it held; `submit` presses Enter after it. For several fields use fill_form. Without `element` the text goes where the focus is, as a person types after clicking: for spreadsheet cells and editors that read does not number (Google Sheets, Docs), click the place first; there a tab in `text` presses Tab and a line break Enter, so one call fills a table. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers. Password, card and one-time code fields are refused: the user types them.
cotlet_browser_upload
Puts files into file field or upload button `element`: each file is {"url": "https://..."} or {"file_id": "..."} of a file uploaded to Cotlet; up to 10 files, 20 MB each. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers.
cotlet_browser_wait
Waits until `text` shows on the page (at most `seconds`, default 5, up to 20), or just `seconds`: for results that load slowly. Says whether the text appeared. Answers the page after it: the elements and text in view, with the same numbers.
cotlet_get_call
Status of an earlier Cotlet call, by its call_id: pending (waits for the owner's approval in the Cotlet console), approved, running, success, rejected, expired, blocked or failed. For a call that answered with status pending or running.
cotlet_report_issue
Sends a report to the Cotlet team: a tool that failed or returned wrong data, an error you could not get past, or a step the browser could not do, with the page, the step and what you saw. A missing dedicated tool is not a problem to report: do the task in the browser. A feature the user asks for goes as feature_request. A report promises nothing: tell the user it was sent, never that something will be built or fixed, or when. The report carries the error text and call_id when there is one, never passwords or tokens. Needs the user's Cotlet API key or sign-in.
cotlet_request_apps
Requests access to apps for the user's workspace, as Request access in the console: every app is granted at once. Not needed to work in an app: the user's AI works in any web app in their Web browser with cotlet_app_guide. An app with dedicated tools gets them after the user signs in to it in their Cloud Browser. Access says nothing about whether a task works there: check that in the browser. Takes app slugs as listed at https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/apps. Free. Needs the user's Cotlet API key or sign-in.
cotlet_upload_file
Returns a one-time upload_url and a file_id for a local file (an image for a post, an attachment). The file is sent to upload_url with an HTTP PUT; an argument that takes a file accepts {"file_id": "..."}. Up to 25 MB, the URL works once. Free. Needs the user's Cotlet API key or sign-in.
cotlet_whoami
The Cotlet account this connection acts as: email, workspace, access status, the API key or OAuth client in use with its scope, the apps the workspace may call and its credit balance. Free. Needs the user's Cotlet API key or sign-in.
housecall
housecall_pro_create_estimate
Create estimate in the user's own Housecall Pro account from ChatGPT, Claude or any AI agent.

estimate
add_estimate_option
Add another option (a separate price) to an estimate, with its own lines. The customer picks one option when approving. Returns the estimate with all its options.
create_estimate
New estimate for a customer with its first option (Option #1) and lines. Sends nothing. Add more options with add_estimate_option, then email it with send_estimate.
get_estimate
One estimate with its customer, status and every option with its lines and total.
job
create_job
New job for a customer with line items, optionally scheduled and assigned to employees. Creates the job as the New job form does. With start, it is scheduled in the company's time zone and assigned to employee_ids; the customer gets a scheduled email only with notify_customer.
get_job
One job with its line items, schedule, employees, balance and the invoices made from it.
send
send_estimate
Email an estimate to the customer with a link to approve one of its options. Sends as the Send button of the estimate page does, by email only. The customer gets the email at once and the estimate shows Awaiting Approval. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool. Waits for the owner's approval.
send_invoice
Email an invoice to the customer as a PDF with the company's default or your own message. Sends as the Send invoice dialog does, by email only. The customer gets it at once. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool. Waits for the owner's approval.
customer
create_customer
New customer with an optional service address; returns its customer_id and address_id.
customers
list_customers
Customers of the company with contact details; search by name, email, phone or address. Newest customers first, 25 per page by default (up to 100); pass next_cursor back as cursor. Phone numbers come as the app stores them, and only mobile_number can receive texts.
employees
list_employees
The company's employees (field techs, office, admins) with role and contact, for dispatch. Use employee_id in create_job and create_estimate to assign work.
estimates
list_estimates
Estimates, newest first, with customer, pipeline status and value. value is the highest option's total. Use estimate_id in get_estimate for options and lines.
invoice
get_invoice
One invoice with its customer, amount, amount due, due terms and when it was sent and paid. amount is this invoice's part; job_total is the whole job's total (progress invoices bill a part).
invoices
list_invoices
Invoices, newest number first, with customer, amount, amount due and last payment. Filters by status only (open, pending_payment, paid); there is no date or customer filter. To find past-due invoices, read the open ones and compare due_at with today where due_amount is above 0. Statuses come back as the list shows them (Paid); get_invoice returns them in lowercase.
jobs
list_jobs
Jobs, newest first, with customer, schedule, assigned employees, total and balance. Filters by work status (unscheduled, scheduled, in_progress, completed) and, after each page is read, by customer_id, so a page can come back short while next_cursor is still set: keep paging. Line items and invoices come from get_job.
price
list_price_book
Services or materials of the company's price book with price, cost and category. Use the name, description and price as line items in create_job or create_estimate.
progress
create_progress_invoice
Invoice part of a job (an amount or a percent of its total); the rest stays to invoice later. Adds an invoice to the job as Invoice > Add invoice does with progressive invoicing on. Without amount or percent it bills everything left. Sends nothing: email it with send_invoice.
record
record_invoice_payment
Record a cash or check payment on a job's invoices. No money is charged. Marks money already received as paid, as the job's Pay dialog does with Cash or Check. Housecall Pro applies it to the job's open invoices, oldest first. It can't be more than what is invoiced and unpaid; invoice the rest with create_progress_invoice first.
schedule
get_schedule
Scheduled jobs and estimate visits on the calendar for a date range, with the assigned employees. Days are in the company's time zone; start and end come back in UTC. record_id is a job or estimate.

What is Housecall Pro MCP Server and API by Cotlet mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around cotlet, housecall and estimate. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 70 of 70 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 260 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Housecall Pro MCP Server and API by Cotlet?

No. Housecall Pro MCP Server and API by Cotlet completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 48 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Housecall Pro MCP Server and API by Cotlet?
It answers our handshake in 260 ms on average, which is faster than 52% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Housecall Pro MCP Server and API by Cotlet open source?
We cannot say either way: written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
