Connect Abridge (AI Clinical Documentation API) MCP to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect Abridge (AI Clinical Documentation API) to Cline and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Execute end-to-end clinical uploads with Cline
The `create_recording` tool sends your raw clinical audio files directly to the Abridge processing pipeline. Cline calls this tool, uploads the audio file from your workspace, and keeps track of the session identifier. You don't need to manually run upload scripts or manage API keys. Cline takes the file path you provide, executes the transfer, and prepares the next steps in your clinical documentation pipeline.
Track transcription status inside VS Code
The `get_recording_status` tool queries the current state of your medical audio processing task to see if it is pending, processing, completed, or failed. Cline runs this check at regular intervals after an upload. If a task fails, your agent inspects the error codes and retries the upload. Once the status shows completed, the agent automatically moves to fetch the finalized clinical notes without requiring your intervention.
Pull structured medical notes using this MCP Server
The `get_clinical_notes` tool retrieves structured medical data, including HPI, physical exam, and assessment plans from Abridge. Cline uses this tool to extract the clinical text and write it directly to your workspace files. This MCP Server allows Cline to write complete clinical summaries into your local markdown files or database. The agent pulls the structured JSON and maps it to your specific database schema instantly.
