Terminal-based Paperform data extraction

Pipe your form data directly into shell scripts or CI/CD pipelines. Use `list_submissions` to fetch entries and process them with standard Unix tools. Claude Code handles the authentication and tool invocation. You get clean, structured data output in your terminal window every time.

Scripting form lifecycle tasks

Automate your form management with `list_forms` and `get_form`. These tools let you query your account state during build processes. Integrate these calls into your deployment scripts. You can verify form configurations as part of your standard validation routine.

Webhook registry operations

Use `create_webhook` to register event listeners during your environment setup. This ensures your data ingestion is active before your code goes live. Verify connectivity with `list_webhooks` to ensure your endpoints are registered. It keeps your infrastructure configuration in sync with your forms.
