About Pipefy MCP Server
Connect your Pipefy account to any AI agent and take full control of your process management workflows through natural conversation.
The Vercel AI SDK gives every Pipefy tool full TypeScript type inference, IDE autocomplete, and compile-time error checking. Connect 14 tools through Vinkius and stream results progressively to React, Svelte, or Vue components. works on Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and any Node.js runtime.
What you can do
- Pipe Discovery — List all pipes (processes) in your organization and inspect their structure, phases, and fields
- Card Management — Create, read, update, and delete cards (items/records) flowing through your pipes
- Field Updates — Update specific field values on existing cards as information changes or processes evolve
- Phase Transitions — Move cards between phases to advance workflow steps (e.g., New → In Progress → Done)
- Card Search — Search for cards by field value to find specific items by email, name, ID, or custom data
- Card Cloning — Duplicate existing cards to quickly create similar items with pre-filled field values
- Organization Info — View organization details, members, and available pipes
- User Profile — Check your authenticated user profile and organization memberships

Why Use Vercel AI SDK with the Pipefy MCP Server
Vercel AI SDK provides unique advantages when paired with Pipefy through the Model Context Protocol.
TypeScript-first: every MCP tool gets full type inference, IDE autocomplete, and compile-time error checking out of the box
Framework-agnostic core works with Next.js, Nuxt, SvelteKit, or any Node.js runtime. same Pipefy integration everywhere
Built-in streaming UI primitives let you display Pipefy tool results progressively in React, Svelte, or Vue components
Edge-compatible: the AI SDK runs on Vercel Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and other edge runtimes for minimal latency
Pipefy + Vercel AI SDK Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Vercel AI SDK combined with the Pipefy MCP Server delivers measurable value.
AI-powered web apps: build dashboards that query Pipefy in real-time and stream results to the UI with zero loading states
API backends: create serverless endpoints that orchestrate Pipefy tools and return structured JSON responses to any frontend
Chatbots with tool use: embed Pipefy capabilities into conversational interfaces with streaming responses and tool call visibility
Internal tools: build admin panels where team members interact with Pipefy through natural language queries
Pipefy MCP Tools for Vercel AI SDK (14)
These 14 tools become available when you connect Pipefy to Vercel AI SDK via MCP:
clone_card
You must provide the card_id of the card to clone. The new card is created in the same pipe as the original, starting at the first phase. This is useful for creating similar requests, repeating processes, or using an existing card as a template for new items. The cloned card gets a new unique ID but retains all field data. Clone an existing card to create a duplicate
create_card
You must provide the pipe_id and a JSON object containing field values matching the pipe's required fields. Fields are key-value pairs where keys are field IDs and values are the data to store. Optionally specify a phase_id to start the card in a specific phase (defaults to first phase). Example fields: { "name": "John Doe", "email": "john@example.com", "priority": "High" } Create a new card in a Pipefy pipe
delete_card
You must provide the card_id. This action cannot be undone. Use this to remove test cards, duplicates, or items that were created in error. Be careful as this will also remove all associated data including comments, attachments, and field values for that card. Delete a card from a pipe
get_card
Use the card_id obtained from list_cards to inspect full card information. This is useful for reviewing card details before updating fields or moving to another phase. Get detailed information about a specific card
get_organization
Use the organization_id to inspect your organization's structure, understand team membership, and discover available pipes for card management. Get details of a Pipefy organization
get_phase
Phases represent steps in a pipe's workflow. Use the phase_id obtained from get_pipe or list_phases to inspect phase configuration. This helps understand what fields are required at each step of the workflow. Get details of a specific phase
get_pipe
Each pipe represents a workflow or process with multiple phases (steps) and custom fields. Use the pipe_id to get the structure of a pipe before creating cards or managing cards within it. The response includes all phases with their IDs, names, and the custom fields defined for the pipe. Get details of a specific Pipefy pipe (process)
get_user_profile
Use this to verify API token access and discover organization IDs needed for other queries. This is also useful for understanding which organizations and pipes the user has access to. Get the authenticated user profile
list_cards
Cards represent individual items flowing through the pipe's workflow phases (e.g., requests, tasks, tickets, leads). You must provide the pipe_id. Optionally filter by phase_id to see cards in a specific phase. Each card includes title, current phase, completion status, due date, and assignees. Use this to monitor workflow progress and identify cards that need attention. List all cards in a pipe with optional phase filter
list_phases
Each phase represents a stage that cards flow through in the process. Use this to understand the workflow structure and identify phase IDs for filtering cards or moving cards between phases. The response includes phase names and card counts. List all phases in a pipe
list_pipes
Each pipe represents a structured workflow with phases, fields, and cards. You must provide the organization_id which can be found in your Pipefy URL or obtained from get_user_profile. Use this to discover all available pipes before managing cards within them. List all pipes in an organization
move_card_to_phase
You must provide the card_id and the target phase_id. This is the primary way to advance workflow items through the pipe's process steps. Common use cases: moving a request from "New" to "In Review", advancing a lead to "Qualified", or progressing a task to "Completed". The card retains all its field values after moving. Move a card to a different phase in the pipe
search_cards_by_field
This is useful for finding cards by email, name, ID, or any custom field content. You must provide the pipe_id, field_id (the field to search in), and search_value (text to find). Results include card title, current phase, status, and all field values for matching cards. The search uses a "contains" operator for flexible matching. Search cards in a pipe by a specific field value
update_card_field
You must provide the card_id, the field_id of the field to update, and the new value as a string. This is useful for updating card information as requests progress or details change. Common updates: changing priority, updating contact info, modifying descriptions, or setting dates. Update a specific field value on a card
Example Prompts for Pipefy in Vercel AI SDK
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Vercel AI SDK agent to start working with Pipefy immediately.
"List all pipes in my organization and show me the cards in the 'IT Support' pipe."
"Create a new purchase request card in the Purchase Requests pipe with these details: Requester: Maria Silva, Item: MacBook Pro 16", Quantity: 2, Justification: Design team replacement."
"Search for all cards in the IT Support pipe where the email field contains 'john@company.com' and show me their current status."
