Connect zipperHQ MCP to Cline

Code Component for Contact Lists
You can write a component that displays all contacts by calling `list_contacts`. If you need to build out an analytics dashboard, the MCP Server provides the data. Cline writes the necessary API calls and imports this structured contact list directly into your project. Similarly, if you want to track video views for specific recipients, Cline can use `get_contact_views` to pull metrics and structure them into a usable component.
Run Tests Against MCP Server Data
Need to verify that the ZipperHQ API is reachable? Write a test file that calls `check_zipper_status`. Cline runs this test, confirming connectivity before your code even hits production. It handles the setup and reporting for you. You can also write tests around video retrieval by calling `get_video` to ensure your component correctly processes video details.
Implement Video Search Functions
Create a search utility using `search_videos`. Cline generates the function signature and writes the implementation that sends keywords to the MCP Server. This means you don't have to manually write the API wrapper every time. If your dashboard needs to display video analytics, just tell Cline to use `get_video_analytics` for a specific ID, and it populates the data structure.
