Accessing Customer Records via MCP Server

Use the `list_customers` tool to pull a full roster of every customer. This lets you get an overview before writing any code. Need specifics? Call `get_customer` using just the ID, or if you need to update their address later, run `update_customer`. It's fast and direct.

Scheduling Jobs with Claude Desktop

The `list_jobs` tool gives you a rundown of all service jobs currently logged. You can see what needs attention right away. To set up something new, use `create_job` by passing the job data as a JSON string. Don't forget to check `update_job` if anything changes on site.

Handling Financials with MCP Server

Managing money is simple here. You can call `list_invoices` or use `get_invoice` to pull up billing details for any client. Plus, if you're planning ahead, `list_quotes` lets your agent grab all current quotes so you know what needs converting into paid work.
