Overview

## What Tines does

Tines is unusual in this directory: it is not a connector to a product's data but a way of building connectors. The listing describes deploying custom MCP servers inside Tines in seconds.

What can be exposed are the things a Tines workspace already contains, covering templates, send-to-story workflows, and custom tools, made reachable by external MCP clients. The zero published tools follow from that, since the servers built here are the ones that carry tools, not this entry. This connector carries the partner tier, meaning it passed a review step, and Tines publishes documentation.

### Who it is for

Security and automation teams exposing Tines workflows to external MCP clients.

### Tool surface

The listing publishes no endpoint URL and records zero tools, so there was nothing to connect to and nothing claimed. That fits a product whose purpose is to host servers rather than to be one.

Availability

## Where Tines is listed

Tines is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. Tines has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.

The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.

Claude listing

## In the Claude connectors directory

Tines reports no tool count in its Claude directory listing. 9 of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors are in the same position, which is far more likely to be a gap in the listing than a server with nothing on it.

Claude-listed connectors filed under Productivity have a median of 12 published tools, so that is the closest thing to an expectation until the endpoint is probed directly.

Tines's Claude listing does not publish an endpoint URL. 48 of the 1,253 Claude listings are in the same position: real listings with documentation but no URL in the directory record, so the endpoint has to come from the publisher's own docs.

Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.

Snapshot

August 2026

Tines carries partner verification in the Claude directory, which 474 of 1,253 listings do (37.8%). That is a review step past self-publishing, not an Anthropic-built server.
