CircleCI integration for Claude and Codex

Connect CircleCI once, then control which Spaces can use its approved tools and data without pasting credentials into prompts or threads.

Use CircleCI from Claude

Add the CircleCI connection to a Space that runs Claude, then use it from every channel in that Space.

Use CircleCI from Codex

Add the CircleCI connection to a Space that runs Codex, then use it from every channel in that Space.

Use CircleCI from Sidekick

Connect your own OpenClaw to Sidekick while type.com provides the conversations, permissions, connections, skills, and automations.

Developer Tools & IT

What the CircleCI connector can do

CircleCI runs build, test, and deployment pipelines for software teams, with contexts used to share environment variables securely across projects. An engineering Space in type.com can ask the agent to set up a new context, restrict who can use it, or create a new project, keeping CI configuration changes visible to the rest of the team.

One connection, many Spaces

Connect CircleCI once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.

What teams do with CircleCI in type.com

Set up shared environment variables

Create a new context so a set of environment variables can be reused across several CircleCI projects instead of duplicated in each one.

Try asking
Create a CircleCI context called staging-secrets for our staging environment variables.

Restrict access to sensitive contexts

Limit which projects or groups can use a context, so production credentials aren't available to every pipeline by default.

Try asking
Add a restriction to the prod-secrets context in CircleCI so only the deploy project group can use it.

Spin up CI for a new service

Create a new CircleCI project as soon as a new repository needs automated builds, instead of configuring it manually.

Try asking
Create a new CircleCI project for our billing-service repository.

Representative actions

  • Create Context

    Sets up a new context in CircleCI for securing and sharing environment variables across projects.

  • Create Context (GraphQL)

    Creates a context using CircleCI's GraphQL API instead of the REST endpoint, returning error details if the mutation fails.

  • Create Context Restriction

    Limits which projects, expressions, or groups can access a given context.

  • Create Organization Orb Allowlist

    Adds a URL prefix to an organization's allowlist so orbs referenced from that URL can be used in pipelines.

  • Create Organization Project

    Sets up a new project within a CircleCI organization for CI and CD automation.

Connection

API and auth details

CircleCI provides API v1.1 and v2 for CI/CD automation, including pipelines, workflows, jobs, projects, contexts, environment variables, artifacts, test metadata, schedules, insights, pipeline triggering for GitHub App, GitLab and Bitbucket Data Center projects, personal and project API tokens, JSON responses, throttling behavior, and build/deployment status tracking.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting CircleCI

Can Claude configure CircleCI contexts and projects from type.com?

Yes. Once CircleCI is connected and shared with a Space, the agent can create contexts, restrict access to them, and set up new projects, with the changes visible in the thread.

How is CircleCI authenticated in type.com?

CircleCI uses an API key, added once by an admin when the connection is created. From there, access is controlled by which Spaces can use the connection.

Can CircleCI setup tasks be scheduled?

Yes. A repeating task, such as auditing context restrictions each week, can be set up as a type.com automation that posts results to a channel.

Is this the same as an MCP server for CircleCI?

Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
