LATE FEATURE

Guides

Log films by talking to Claude or ChatGPT

Add Late Feature to Claude, ChatGPT or Claude Code once, then log, rate and look up the films you watch just by saying so.

Late Feature speaks MCP, the standard way AI apps connect to other services. You add one address to your app, sign in to Late Feature once, and from then on the assistant can log, rate and look up films for you. There’s no key to copy.

The address: https://latefeature.com/api/mcp

Claude

  1. Open Claude → Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
  2. Name it Late Feature and paste the address. For authentication choose OAuth, and leave any client ID or secret empty: Late Feature registers Claude by itself.
  3. Click Allow on the Late Feature page that opens, and you’re connected.
  4. In a chat, switch Late Feature on from the tools menu. It works in the Claude apps too.

ChatGPT

  1. Open ChatGPT → Plugins on the web, choose + and then Add custom MCP server.
  2. Name it Late Feature, paste the address and choose OAuth for authentication.
  3. Accept the warning and create it.
  4. Click Allow on the Late Feature page that opens, and you’re connected.

Some ChatGPT plans allow only read tools for custom servers, so ChatGPT may answer questions about your diary without being able to log films.

Claude Code and other apps

  1. Run claude mcp add --transport http reelist https://latefeature.com/api/mcp
  2. In Claude Code, run /mcp, pick reelist and authenticate, then click Allow.

Any app that takes a Streamable HTTP MCP server with OAuth works the same way. An app that can’t sign in can use a key from Sources → AI assistants, sent as a Bearer token.

What you can say

  • “Log Heat, watched last night, 4½ stars.”
  • “Rate Aftersun five stars.”
  • “Add Past Lives to my watchlist.”
  • “What did I watch in March?” or “Have I seen anything by Céline Sciamma?”
  • “What’s on my watchlist?” or “How many films have I logged this year?”
  • “Here’s my IMDb ratings export: add the films to my diary.”

That last one works for any history Late Feature has no importer for: a screenshot, a file, emails or a list. Bringing in your history with an assistant.

Late Feature tells the assistant to search before it logs, and to ask which film you mean when more than one could be (remakes, films that share a title) rather than guessing. A ticket for a showing still to come is listed separately and never counted as watched.

What a connected app can see

A connected assistant can read your diary, notes included, and log, rate and add to your watchlist. It can’t delete diary entries. Every connected app is listed under Sources → AI assistants with when it was last used, and disconnecting it there cuts it off at once.

If it won’t connect

  • Remove Late Feature from the app and add it again with the address above, then click Allow. That makes a fresh connection, and the old one stops working.
  • In Claude Code, Late Feature shows as needing authentication until you run /mcp and choose it.
  • If the Allow page says the app couldn’t be checked, try again in a minute: Late Feature reads the app’s details from its own site each time.
  • Still stuck? Support says who to write to.
