Monitor ZipperHQ Status in CI/CD

Need to ensure the communication platform is up before a deployment? Run `check_zipper_status` as a simple pre-flight check in your GitHub Action. If it fails, the pipeline halts immediately. This MCP Server allows you to pipe connectivity status checks directly into shell scripts for immediate verification.

Batch Process Contact Metrics

You can list every contact using `list_contacts` and then loop through that output. Inside the loop, call `get_contact_views` to pull video views for each person and pipe the results into a CSV file for reporting. This kind of batch processing is perfect for cron jobs or scheduled tasks running in Docker containers.

Extract Video Data via Command Line

To get details on a specific video, just run `get_video <ID>`. The output streams directly to stdio, which you can then pipe into another tool for filtering or further processing. It's simple, direct shell scripting. Use `list_videos` to grab all email videos and process them in bulk—no GUI needed, just raw data flow.
