Generate custom property dashboards inside Cline

The `list_assets` tool fetches your complete commercial property inventory so Cline can build local visualization tools. Cline takes this raw list, writes a React dashboard component, and feeds the live asset data directly into your local UI. By loading this MCP server, the agent runs the query, writes the frontend code, and populates the tables with live square footage and valuation metrics.

Automate portfolio health checks using this MCP Server

The `get_portfolio` tool retrieves deep financial metrics for any specific asset collection in your account. Cline executes this tool to audit your holdings, runs tests on your local valuation models, and flags properties that fall below your target yield. The agent handles the end-to-end audit process. It fetches the portfolio data, compares it against your local database, and commits the updated valuation sheets to your git repository.

Real-time alert monitoring and local file sync

The `list_notifications` tool pulls critical ARGUS alerts directly into Cline's execution context. When a tenant alert or lease expiration notification triggers, Cline automatically runs `get_asset` to pull the full property profile and updates your local markdown log. This keeps your team's internal documentation perfectly synced. The agent writes the changes, shows you the file diff, and stages the update for your next commit.
