Zapier Setup
Skill Verified ActiveSet up Zapier MCP and add tools to your AI assistant. Introduces what Zapier can do, walks through authentication, detects your server mode, then branches into the right flow — summary for healthy setups, reconnect for broken auth, onboarding for fresh installs, or config help when the server is missing. Use when getting started, troubleshooting connection issues, adding new tools, or when the user asks "what can I do now", "what can I do with Zapier", "show me how the Zapier plugin works", "what is Zapier MCP", "how does Zapier work", or "tell me about Zapier".
