Perplexity

Pipe McLeod Software data into CLI tools

The `list_dispatches` tool outputs clean JSON directly to your terminal session via this MCP Server. Claude Code lets you pipe this output into grep, jq, or custom shell scripts to filter active driver assignments on the fly. You can run Cron jobs or CI pipelines that check fleet status without opening a heavy GUI. This makes it easy to write lightweight bash scripts that trigger alerts when dispatches fall behind schedule.

Query orders fast using this MCP Server

This MCP Server provides `search_orders` to let you find load records without leaving your shell. Claude Code processes your text queries and returns matching orders instantly. If you need to drill down, you can immediately call `get_order` on the resulting ID. It is the fastest way for backend engineers to inspect live database values during active development.

Audit driver availability in Claude Code

The `list_drivers` tool pulls your entire operator list into your terminal environment. Claude Code parses the status flags to show you who is currently on the road and who is waiting for a load. When combined with `list_movements`, you get a complete snapshot of your fleet utilization. You can quickly identify idle capacity and export the results to a CSV file.
