Key Capabilities
Build and test PDF workflows directly in Cursor
The `start_request` tool lets your agent initiate real document runs while you write your application code. Instead of guessing payload structures, your AI client calls the tool to get live API responses. This lets you write code against actual JSON structures rather than outdated documentation or mock endpoints. You can inspect the exact output of `get_process` to understand how your system handles document states. Having this live context in your editor means you write working integration code faster. You eliminate the constant cycle of writing code, deploying, and checking external logs.
Inspect active tasks to debug document routing
The `get_task` tool retrieves precise metadata about specific steps in your document lifecycle. When writing custom event listeners, your agent uses this MCP Server to check if fields are populating correctly. It compares the live state against `list_user_tasks` to ensure your routing logic works under real-world conditions. You don't have to leave your editor to verify if a task was assigned to the correct user. Your agent queries `list_users` and matches the IDs directly inside your open files. This direct feedback loop makes debugging complex document routing a simple task.
Automate task completion during local development
The `complete_task` tool allows your agent to programmatically sign off on steps to test downstream triggers. When you are writing code for webhook handlers, you can have your editor execute this tool to simulate user actions. It updates the state machine instantly, letting you observe how your application reacts. This makes integration testing incredibly fast. You can chain `start_request` with `complete_task` to run through an entire document lifecycle in seconds. Your agent writes the test assertions based on the actual live state returned by the server.
