FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting Penpot

Can Claude create Penpot files and comments from type.com?

Yes. Once Penpot is connected and shared with a Space, Claude can create projects, files, and comment threads, with everything visible in the thread.

How do I authenticate Penpot in type.com?

Penpot uses an API key. An admin adds it once when creating the connection, then chooses which Spaces can use it.

Can Penpot setup tasks run on a schedule?

Yes. Turn a recurring task, such as creating a new project at the start of each sprint, into a type.com automation.

Is this the same as an MCP server for Penpot?

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.
