What you can do with this MCP connector
Connect your Ironclad account to your AI client and manage your entire contract lifecycle conversationally. You can launch workflows, track approvals, search agreements, and pull deep contract details without ever leaving your chat window.
ironclad_launch_workflow lets you kick off a new contract workflow—whether it's an NDA, MSA, or SOW—using a defined template and providing all the necessary counterparty details. ironclad_list_templates shows you every contract template you've got ready to go.
To track progress, ironclad_list_workflows gives you a list of all contracts currently moving through the approval or signature pipeline. ironclad_get_workflow pulls comprehensive details on any contract workflow, showing you the current step, all attributes, and the full action timeline. If you need to know who's stuck, ironclad_get_approvals checks who needs to approve a contract, listing the approver's status, date, and comments, and it even tells you who rejected the document.
You can also grab all internal discussion notes and negotiation comments for a specific contract using ironclad_get_comments.
Need to know what's signed? ironclad_list_records returns a list of all fully signed contracts from your repository, showing key metadata like renewal dates, total value, and status. ironclad_search_records finds specific contracts, counterparties, or contract types across the entire repository by searching keywords. For a deep dive, ironclad_get_record pulls all metadata, dates, and obligations for a single, executed contract record.
You can see all contracts moving through the system using ironclad_list_workflows. If you need to know how external systems are hooked up, ironclad_list_webhooks shows you all the configured webhooks to monitor for events like contract signing or workflow launch. Finally, ironclad_list_records lists all signed contracts, showing key data like renewal dates, total value, and status.
How Ironclad MCP Works
- 1 Enter your Ironclad API token in the Vinkius Marketplace.
- 2 Your AI agent establishes a connection to your Ironclad workspace.
- 3 Ask a direct question, like "List all contracts expiring next quarter," or "Launch an MSA for Beta Corp." The agent executes the necessary tools and returns the data.
The bottom line is: Your AI client handles the API calls and data parsing; you just talk to it.
Who Is Ironclad MCP For?
Legal Ops and Procurement professionals who spend their days jumping between contract management systems, spreadsheets, and internal communication tools. If you're tired of manually tracking who approved what and when a key vendor contract is up for renewal, this is for you. It puts the entire contract repository into conversation.
Checks contract status, reviews approval roadblocks, and pulls detailed negotiation history without leaving their primary chat interface.
Launches new contracts (NDAs, MSAs) from templates and monitors the legal review process to ensure timely deal closing.
Manages vendor agreements, tracks renewal dates, and searches the contract repository for compliance documentation.
What Changes When You Connect
- Track status and approvals instantly. Instead of checking a dashboard, ask your agent to use
ironclad_get_approvalsto see who is holding up a contract, and why. - Streamline deal initiation. Use
ironclad_launch_workflowto start a new MSA or NDA from a template, passing the counterparty name and deal value in one prompt. - Never miss a renewal. Run
ironclad_list_recordsto get a clear list of all executed agreements, highlighting those that expire or renew next quarter. - Deep dive into history. Need to know why Legal flagged a clause? Use
ironclad_get_commentsto pull the full discussion thread attached to the specific workflow. - Keep the deal moving. Use
ironclad_list_workflowsto get a quick overview of all contracts currently in motion, allowing you to triage bottlenecks. - Centralized search. Instead of navigating folders, use
ironclad_search_recordsto find any contract—by keyword, counterparty, or document type—and pull up the details.
Real-World Use Cases
The Legal Review Bottleneck
A contract is stuck in the approval queue. Instead of emailing three different people to ask who's holding it up, you ask your agent to run ironclad_get_approvals. The agent tells you exactly which person needs to act, and why the contract is delayed.
Vendor Agreement Tracking
You need to know the expiration date for all vendor agreements with Acme Corp. You ask your agent to run ironclad_list_records and filter by counterparty. The agent instantly returns a list, showing the key renewal dates and total contract values.
Starting a New Deal
Sales just closed a deal and needs an NDA. Instead of logging into Ironclad, finding the template, and filling out forms, you ask your agent to run ironclad_launch_workflow with the client name and deal type. The workflow starts instantly.
Understanding Contract History
A colleague asks about a specific contract, but the context is lost. You ask your agent to run ironclad_get_comments on the contract ID. The agent pulls the full internal discussion thread, so everyone knows the decision context.
The Tradeoffs
API Overload
Trying to find a contract's status by calling ironclad_get_workflow, then ironclad_get_approvals, and then ironclad_get_comments sequentially. This is slow and clunky.
→
Ask your agent to combine the requests. Tell it: 'Give me the status and blockers for Acme Corp.' The agent coordinates the necessary tools (ironclad_get_workflow and ironclad_get_approvals) in one go.
Manual Record Search
Searching the Ironclad UI manually for a contract by keyword and hoping the right one appears.
→
Use ironclad_search_records. You just need to ask: 'Find all contracts mentioning 'data compliance' for any counterparty.' The agent handles the keyword search across the whole repository.
Ignoring Templates
Trying to create a new contract without specifying the correct template, leading to missing required fields and workflow failure.
→
First, run ironclad_list_templates to see what types of contracts are available. Then, use ironclad_launch_workflow with the correct template ID and all required attributes.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this if your core process is managing high-volume, multi-stage, legally sensitive documents. You need to know who needs to approve what, when they need to act, and what the current state is. The strength of this server is its ability to track the journey of a contract. Don't use it if your primary need is simple data entry or basic document storage; for that, a simple document API might suffice. If you mainly need to track webhooks, use ironclad_list_webhooks directly, but for anything involving the contract's life cycle, this is the right tool.

Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more
The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This server provides 10 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
Available Capabilities
Manually checking contract status across multiple tabs is a time sink.
Today, tracking a contract is a nightmare. You open the Ironclad tab, check the workflow status, then open a separate 'Approvals' view to see who is pending, and then you jump to the 'Comments' section to figure out *why* it's stuck. It takes five clicks and a spreadsheet to track a single deal.
With Ironclad MCP, you just ask your agent: 'Show me the status for the Acme deal.' It runs the necessary tools, pulling the current step, the list of pending approvers, and the reasons for delays—all in one response.
Ironclad MCP Server: Manage the entire contract lifecycle.
No more logging in to five different views just to understand one contract. You can launch a new deal using `ironclad_launch_workflow` and immediately see its assigned path, or use `ironclad_list_workflows` to get a pipeline snapshot of everything in progress.
The difference is context. You don't just see data; you see the entire history and the next actionable step, making your team faster and reducing legal risk.
Common Questions About Ironclad MCP
How do I find all contracts that are up for renewal using ironclad_list_records? +
You ask your agent to list records and specify 'renewal' in the prompt. The agent calls ironclad_list_records and filters the results by key dates, giving you a clean list of agreements needing attention.
What is the difference between ironclad_list_workflows and ironclad_list_records? +
Workflows track contracts in progress (drafting, approval, signature). Records track contracts that are finished and executed, showing their final metadata.
Can I see who needs to sign a contract using ironclad_get_approvals? +
Yes. Running ironclad_get_approvals shows the full approval chain, indicating exactly who is pending review, who approved it, and when they did it.
How do I start a new contract using ironclad_launch_workflow? +
You need to specify the template and the key details (like counterparty name) in your prompt. The agent executes ironclad_launch_workflow, and the contract enters the first step of the defined process.
What does ironclad_search_records do? +
This tool searches across the entire executed contract repository, allowing you to find agreements by keyword, counterparty, or contract type, no matter where it was stored.
How do I use ironclad_get_comments to understand negotiation history? +
It returns all internal discussion threads, including the author, timestamp, and message. This helps you review everything from initial legal feedback to final negotiation notes.
When should I use ironclad_list_templates versus ironclad_launch_workflow? +
Use ironclad_list_templates first to see what contract types (NDAs, MSAs, etc.) are available. Then, you use ironclad_launch_workflow with a specific template ID to start the process.
What information does ironclad_get_record provide about an executed contract? +
It gives complete details for a finished contract, including all metadata, key dates, specific obligations, and links to related documents.
How do I get started with Ironclad? +
Subscribe, then enter your Ironclad API token (from Company Settings → API → Access Tokens). Your AI agent connects instantly to your workspace. No code, no SDK, no webhooks — just connect and start managing contracts through conversation.
Can my AI agent launch a new contract for a counterparty? +
Yes. Tell your agent to launch a contract (e.g., "start an NDA for Acme Corp") and it selects the right template, fills in counterparty details, contract value, and effective dates. The workflow enters internal review immediately — your legal team sees it in their queue within seconds.
How do I find out why a contract is stuck in approval? +
Ask your agent "who still needs to approve the Acme MSA?" and it shows every approver with their status — approved, pending, or rejected — plus any comments they left. You see exactly who is blocking the contract and can follow up directly, all without opening Ironclad.
Can I manage complex contract portfolios with multiple contract types? +
Absolutely. Browse all your workflow templates (NDAs, MSAs, SOWs, amendments, renewals), search across the entire executed contract repository by counterparty or keyword, and track renewal dates — perfect for legal departments, procurement teams, and enterprises managing hundreds of active agreements.
