How to Use the MarketMan MCP in Cline
Cline handles your restaurant's back-of-house operations by executing MarketMan commands directly in your VS Code environment.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect MarketMan MCP to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect MarketMan 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.
Cline executes inventory audits
Cline runs `list_inventory` to generate a live stock report. It doesn't just show you the data; it can write the summary to a file for your manager. Use `get_count_sheets` to pull specific location data. The agent verifies the numbers against your expected levels without you lifting a finger.
Manage vendor relations with Cline
Ask the agent to pull your supplier list using `list_vendors`. It organizes the contacts and purchase history so you can negotiate better terms. Cline monitors `list_purchase_orders` to ensure your invoices match the deliveries. If something looks off, it alerts you immediately.
Optimize recipes via Cline
The agent inspects your menu items with `list_recipes`. It identifies which dishes are costing you the most based on current ingredient pricing. It connects this to `get_waste_events` to show you if high-cost items are also high-waste items. You get a clear picture of your actual margins.
