End-to-end card issuance inside Cline
The `create_card_product` tool defines the core parameters of your payment cards right from VS Code using this MCP integration. Cline runs this tool, builds the product template, and immediately uses `create_card` to issue a test card for your database. You avoid jumping between the browser and your editor. The agent handles the API calls, writes the returned card tokens into your local config, and runs your test suites to verify integration.
Automated payment simulation via Cline MCP Server
The `simulate_authorization` tool lets you mock card swipes to test your ledger logic. Cline executes this tool, captures the response, and writes the necessary `simulate_clearing` scripts to finish the transaction loop. Testing payment edge cases is fast. The agent triggers reversals with `simulate_reversal` and updates your code to handle declined transactions based on the simulated response codes.
Manage funding sources and balances directly
The `create_ach_funding_source` tool links bank accounts to fund your card program ledger. Cline calls this tool, sets up the funding source, and uses `create_gpa_order` to move money into a test user's account. The agent checks the final balances using `get_balances` to confirm the funding succeeded. You see the exact ledger state directly in your VS Code terminal without manual checks.
