Connect Kargo MCP to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect Kargo to Cline and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Automate shipping workflows with Cline
Tell Cline to check current orders using `list_orders` and it will fetch the data immediately. It handles the parsing and formatting so you can focus on the logistics strategy. Use `get_order` when you need specific details on a high-priority shipment. Cline pulls the record and prepares it for your review, cutting out manual search time.
Direct device management in Cline
Cline interacts with your facility hardware by invoking `list_devices`. It maps out your current IoT configuration so you know exactly which gates or scanners are active. Run `get_device_status` to pull metrics from a specific unit. Cline gives you the raw status update so you can decide if a gate needs a reset or a technician.
Update logistics state from Cline
Modify your operational records by triggering `update_logistics` through the Cline chat interface. It performs the write operation and confirms the result in your terminal. Verify these updates by calling `list_payload_logs`. Cline shows you the transaction history, ensuring your records reflect the latest actions taken by your team.
