Grow your Mailchimp audience from Capsule CRM with consent intact
For marketing teams who want Capsule CRM contacts in a Mailchimp audience without re-adding anyone who unsubscribed, by asking their AI.

Connect Capsule CRM, pick your AI tool and paste the prompt.
The problem
Syncing contacts to Mailchimp can break consent
Moving Capsule CRM contacts into a Mailchimp audience by hand means checking every email first. It is easy to re-add someone who unsubscribed, or subscribe people who never agreed to hear from you.
Without PopdockAI
- Export people with an email from Capsule CRM
- Check each one against the Mailchimp audience
- Re-add someone who unsubscribed by mistake
- Subscribe people who never agreed to it
With PopdockAI
- People with an email are read from Capsule CRM
- Anyone already in the audience is skipped, whatever their status
- You see who will be added and who was skipped first
- New members are added as pending so they confirm themselves

**Objective:** Add Capsule CRM people owned by `{owner-name}` (default: any owner) who have an email address but are not yet in the Mailchimp audience `{list-name}`, as pending members so Mailchimp sends them a double opt-in confirmation.
**Step 1: Find the audience**
Call `mailchimp-get-list` with `name` set to `{list-name}`. If none or several match, list what you found (name, list-id) and stop. Keep the `list-id`.
**Step 2: Read the Capsule CRM people**
Call `capsule-crm-get-party` with `type` set to person, `owner-name` set to `{owner-name}` if given, and `max-records` set to 100. Drop anyone with an empty `email`.
**Step 3: Find the gap**
For each remaining person, call `mailchimp-get-list-member` with `email` set to their email and `list-name` set to the audience name.
* Any row at all (subscribed, unsubscribed, cleaned or pending): skip them. Never re-add someone who has unsubscribed or been cleaned.
* No row: add them to the plan.
**Step 4: Confirm**
Show the plan: name, email, organization-name, owner-name. Show the skipped people grouped by their Mailchimp status. State that each person will be added with status pending. Ask the user to confirm. Do not add anyone until they do.
**Step 5: Add and report**
After confirmation, call `mailchimp-add-list-member` once per person with `list-id`, `email-address`, `status` set to pending, and `first-name` / `last-name` split from the Capsule name where it is clearly a first and last name. Report each as added or failed with the error.
**Rules & Guidelines:**
* Tools whose names start with mailchimp are on the mailchimp MCP server; tools whose names start with capsule-crm are on the capsule-crm MCP server. If a tool from either server is not available, stop and say which server is not connected rather than working around it.
* Match records across the two systems on email address only, compared case-insensitively with surrounding spaces trimmed. Never match on name alone.
* The only write tool this prompt may call is `mailchimp-add-list-member`. Do not call any other write tool on either server: on Mailchimp `mailchimp-update-list-member`, `mailchimp-add-segment-member`, `mailchimp-add-customer`, `mailchimp-update-customer`, `mailchimp-update-order`, `mailchimp-update-product`, `mailchimp-start-automation`, `mailchimp-pause-automation`, `mailchimp-replicate-campaign`; on Capsule CRM `capsule-crm-add-party`, `capsule-crm-update-party`, `capsule-crm-add-note`, `capsule-crm-update-note`, `capsule-crm-add-task`, `capsule-crm-update-task`, `capsule-crm-add-opportunity`, `capsule-crm-update-opportunity`, `capsule-crm-add-case`, `capsule-crm-update-case`.
* Always use status pending. Never add anyone as subscribed: Capsule CRM does not record marketing consent.
**Validation:**
* If every person is already in the audience, report that and stop.
* Cap a single run at 100 additions; if there are more, say how many remain.Who it's for
