Find and inspect templates in Claude Desktop

`list_docupilot_templates` lets Claude Desktop pull your active document layouts directly into your chat window. You can also run `search_docupilot_templates` inside Claude Desktop to isolate a specific invoice or contract layout by keyword without opening a browser tab. Once you locate the right file, `get_template_schema` exposes the exact structure to Claude Desktop so you know what data to provide. It's clean, fast, and ensures Claude Desktop maps Docupilot fields with zero guesswork.

Run document merges from Claude Desktop

`trigger_document_merge` executes document generation by feeding structured payload data from Claude Desktop straight into your Docupilot templates. Your Claude Desktop agent handles the API handshake, pushing JSON data directly from your local context into the generation engine. To keep you updated, `get_document_generation_status` tracks the progress of the run and grabs the final download link for Claude Desktop. You get your finished Docupilot PDFs or Word files right inside the Claude Desktop interface.

Audit merge fields with this Docupilot MCP Server

`get_template_merge_field_audit` checks your active Docupilot templates to identify missing variables before Claude Desktop initiates a run. This step ensures your Claude Desktop agent catches formatting errors before they consume your generation limits. If a run goes sideways, `list_failed_document_merges` identifies the exact point of failure within Claude Desktop. You can quickly cross-reference these issues in Claude Desktop using `get_docupilot_account_metadata` to verify your Docupilot plan limits.
