…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Knackly MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Knackly to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Query schemas with this MCP Server
Writing integration code for dynamic templates usually means guessing the API payload structure. Your agent stops the guessing game by calling `list_data_models` right inside the editor. It pulls the exact schema for the document you want to automate. You get the actual required fields injected into your codebase. If you need to find a different template category, the agent runs `list_catalogs` to search your available directories.
Test generation logic mid-code
You do not need to leave the IDE to see if your payload works. Cursor executes `create_data_record` using the test data you just wrote. This triggers the Knackly assembly engine immediately. Once the request fires, your agent calls `list_generated_documents` to verify the output exists. You see real API responses instead of mocked success messages.
Debug webhooks and record states
Asynchronous document workflows fail when webhooks misfire. You tell Cursor to run `list_webhooks` to confirm your endpoints are actually registered in the workspace. If a specific contract gets stuck, the agent uses `get_record_details` to pull the exact state of that payload. It reads the error straight from the Knackly API, letting you fix your code without switching windows.
