Build custom notification tools with this MCP Server

Tell Cline to build a custom alert dashboard, and it will write the frontend code while using `get_applications` to fetch your live channels. It maps your active endpoints directly to the UI without you writing a single API call. If the dashboard needs testing, Cline uses `send_message` to fire test alerts and verifies they arrive. It handles the entire setup from code generation to live testing.

Automated client provisioning for local testing

Cline can provision fresh API access on the fly using this MCP integration. It calls `create_client` to generate new credentials, then configures your local environment variables with the new token. Once your test run finishes, Cline cleans up after itself by running `delete_client`. Your Gotify database stays clean, and you don't have orphaned credentials floating around.

Configure plugins directly from your editor

Managing notification extensions usually requires loading up a web browser. Cline bypasses the UI entirely by calling `get_plugins` and `get_plugin_config` right inside your VS Code terminal. If a plugin needs a quick tweak, the agent applies the changes using `update_plugin_config`. You stay in your flow state while your notification backend gets updated.
