…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Mela MCP to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect Mela 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 Mela tasks end-to-end
Tell Cline to update your site logs and watch it work. It invokes `log_work_hours` and `log_materials` to document your daily progress immediately. You get a clear diff of the changes before anything is finalized. Cline ensures the data sent matches your project schema.
Real-time project data for Cline
Cline uses `get_accounting_data` to pull precise cost metrics into your VS Code environment. It helps you keep track of budget usage while you write code. This integration turns raw numbers into readable reports. You can ask Cline to analyze the output and suggest adjustments to your current tasks.
Complete activity management
Cline can list your active jobs and checklists using `list_activities` and `list_checklists`. This gives the agent full context of your current site requirements. When a task is finished, it calls `update_activity_status` to close out the job. You stay focused on the code while the administrative work gets done.
