RunPod integration for Claude and Codex

Create a RunPod connection, then control which Spaces can use its approved tools and data without pasting credentials into prompts or threads.

Use RunPod from Claude

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

Use RunPod from Codex

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

Use RunPod from Sidekick

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

Representative actions

  • Create RunPod Cluster

    Tool to create a new GPU cluster for multi-node distributed computing workloads on RunPod. Use when you need to deploy multiple pods with shared configuration for parallel processing, ML training, or HPC workloads.

  • Create Secret

    Tool to create a new secure secret in RunPod for credential management. Use when you need to store sensitive values like API keys, passwords, or tokens that will be accessible in pods and endpoints via environment variables (RUNPOD_SECRET_<name>).

  • Delete Container Registry Authentication

    Tool to delete container registry authentication from RunPod. Use when you need to remove stored registry credentials.

  • Delete Template

    Tool to remove a RunPod template via GraphQL mutation. Use when you need to delete a template that is no longer needed. The template must not be in use by any pods or assigned to any serverless endpoints, otherwise the operation will fail.

  • Get GPU Types

    Tool to retrieve available GPU types and their specifications, pricing, and availability from RunPod. Use when you need to find GPU options for deployment.

Connection

API and auth details

RunPod provides GPU cloud infrastructure and serverless APIs for AI workloads. Integrations can manage pods, serverless endpoints, jobs, templates, networks, storage, GPU resources, usage, and AI inference pipelines using API keys and GraphQL/REST-style APIs.

FAQ

Questions people ask before connecting RunPod

Can Claude use RunPod?

Yes. Add a RunPod connection to a Space that runs Claude, then use its approved tools and data from any channel in that Space.

Can Codex work with RunPod through Type?

Yes. Add a RunPod connection to a Space that runs Codex, then use its approved tools and data from any channel in that Space.

Is this the same as a RunPod MCP server?

Not exactly. Type 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.
