How to Use the API Design Prover MCP in Cline
Cline builds better APIs with API Design Prover. Check your design logic before the agent starts writing files.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect API Design Prover MCP to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect API Design Prover 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.
Audit API contracts in Cline
Cline usually just starts coding, but this tool makes it pause. Use `validate_api_design` to verify your versioning strategy and deprecation policy before the agent creates a single file. It keeps your codebase clean. You won't have to refactor your routes later because the design was wrong on day one.
Verify response envelopes for Cline
Every consumer needs a predictable response shape. This tool forces you to define that envelope clearly so Cline doesn't return loose, unstructured JSON. It forces a strict contract. The agent builds the data layer to match this shape, keeping your frontend and backend in sync.
Control API growth with this MCP Server
Cline tends to build fast, but speed shouldn't mean messy APIs. You use this tool to define pagination strategies and limits that keep your services performant. It gives the agent boundaries. You define the rules, and the MCP server ensures the code follows them.
