How to Use the HiFlow MCP in Cline

Q: Can Cline automatically generate reports from my HiFlow data?

Yes. Cline can run listtimesheets and listjobs, parse the JSON responses, and write a formatted report directly into your workspace.

Q: Does Cline support creating new records in HiFlow?

Yes. It uses the createcustomer tool to push new client data. Just give the command, and it handles the payload construction and execution.

Q: How do I check my current user status?

Run the getme tool. It returns the profile details and permission levels for the authenticated user.

Q: Are my customer lists secure when queried?

Every call to listcustomers or getcustomer operates within a zero-trust architecture. The managed endpoint processes the payload and immediately terminates the connection. No client details are ever cached or stored on the proxy layer.

Give Cline the ability to manage your HiFlow customers and invoices directly from VS Code.

Perplexity

Build billing tools with HiFlow data

The `list_invoices` and `get_invoice` tools supply live billing data straight to your VS Code environment. You tell Cline to build an invoice dashboard, and it fetches the actual JSON payload to map out the frontend components. It does not stop at reading data. Cline writes the React components, sets up the API routes, and uses `list_estimates` to populate the mock data files for your unit tests. You watch the diffs happen in real time.

Control the HiFlow MCP Server locally

The `list_jobs` and `get_job` tools let Cline read your active project specs without you leaving the editor. If you need to scaffold a new client project, it runs `get_customer` to pull their specific requirements. When a new contract lands, instruct Cline to execute `create_customer`. It creates the record, pulls the confirmation, and logs the ID into your environment variables so your local code can reference it immediately.

Sync timesheets with your workflow

The `list_timesheets` tool feeds your logged hours directly to your AI client. Cline uses this to write automated scripts that calculate burn rates or generate weekly reports based on actual developer time. Need to know who did what? Cline runs `get_activity` and `get_me` to pull user-specific logs. It parses the output, writes a markdown summary, and saves it to your project root.
