Connect MakePlans MCP to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect MakePlans 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.
Build interfaces with live data
The MakePlans MCP Server exposes `list_available_slots` and `list_services` so Cline can build accurate frontend components using real backend responses. You tell the agent to create a calendar widget, and it pulls the actual time slots into your local state. No more hardcoding mock arrays to test your UI. Cline writes the code, imports the data, and stages the commit. If you need a dropdown for specific staff members, the agent hits `list_people` and wires up the selection logic. It handles the entire end-to-end task while you watch the diffs appear.
Test logic with the MakePlans MCP Server
Your VS Code agent uses `create_booking` to verify that your newly written form submission handler actually works. Cline submits the payload through the server connection and reads the response. You get immediate validation that your data structures match the required schema. Cleaning up those tests is just as fast. The agent will run `delete_booking` to remove the test records it just created. You never have to log into a web dashboard to clear out garbage data generated during development.
Audit resources and appointments
Calling `list_bookings` lets Cline analyze your current schedule and write custom reports right in your workspace. You ask for a summary of tomorrow's consultations, and the agent fetches the exact records. It parses the JSON and generates a formatted markdown file in seconds. Checking specific room availability happens through `get_resource` and `list_resources`. Cline reads the equipment lists and cross-references them against active appointments. The agent does the heavy lifting of joining these data points so you can focus on writing business logic.
