Send documents for e-signature from AI agents. Upload, sign, and download PDFs.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an AI assistant send PDFs for e-signature, track envelope status, and download signed copies and audit certificates via SignForge.

What you can do
Connects an assistant to the SignForge e-signature API. Tools cover creating and sending envelopes from a local PDF path or base64 data, listing and checking envelope status, sending drafts, voiding or deleting envelopes, and downloading signed PDFs, audit certificates, and ZIP archives. It also lists and creates envelopes from templates with pre-filled fields, generates embeddable signing URLs, and manages webhook subscriptions for envelope events.
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to handle routine e-signature work: sending an NDA or contract to a recipient, checking whether a document has been signed, retrieving the signed file and audit trail, or starting envelopes from standard templates. Sandbox keys let you test the flow without sending real emails.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio, typically via npx @signforge/mcp-server, so Node.js and network access are needed. A SignForge account and API key are required, supplied as the SIGNFORGE_API_KEY environment variable. The optional SIGNFORGE_API_URL variable changes the API base URL for self-hosted or staging instances.
Before you install
The API key SIGNFORGE_API_KEY is a secret stored in the client configuration; anyone with it can act on your SignForge account. Tools send documents to recipients, void or delete envelopes, and create or delete webhooks, so actions have real external effects. Creating a webhook returns a signing secret to save for verification. Signed PDFs and audit certificates are written to local files.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Signforge in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

@signforge/mcp-server

Send documents for e-signature directly from Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and other AI agents — powered by SignForge, the free e-signature platform.

What It Does

This MCP server connects AI agents to SignForge's e-signature API. Your AI assistant can:

  • Send documents for signature — upload a PDF, specify a signer, and send in one step
  • Manage envelopes — send, void, delete, and check status
  • Download documents — signed PDFs, audit certificates, and ZIP archives
  • Use templates — create envelopes from reusable templates with pre-filled fields
  • Manage webhooks — subscribe to real-time envelope events
  • Generate embed URLs — create embeddable signing experiences

Quick Start

1. Get Your API Key

Sign up at signforge.io and generate an API key from your Developer Settings.

2. Configure Your AI Client

Choose your client below and add the configuration:

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "signforge": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@signforge/mcp-server"],      "env": {        "SIGNFORGE_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"      }    }  }}

Config file location:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Claude Code
bash
claude mcp add signforge -- npx -y @signforge/mcp-server

Then set the environment variable in your shell:

bash
export SIGNFORGE_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
Cursor

Add to your Cursor MCP settings (.cursor/mcp.json):

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "signforge": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@signforge/mcp-server"],      "env": {        "SIGNFORGE_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"      }    }  }}
Direct (npx)
bash
SIGNFORGE_API_KEY="your-api-key-here" npx -y @signforge/mcp-server

3. Restart Your Client

Restart Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or Cursor to pick up the new MCP server.

SIGNFORGE_API_URLNohttps://signforge.io/api/v1API base URL. Only change this for self-hosted instances or staging.

Sandbox Mode

API keys created in sandbox mode will create test envelopes that don't send real emails. Use sandbox mode during development and testing.

Troubleshooting

"SIGNFORGE_API_KEY environment variable is required" Make sure you've set the SIGNFORGE_API_KEY in your MCP client configuration. See the setup instructions above.

"SignForge API error (401)" Your API key is invalid or expired. Generate a new one at signforge.io/dashboard/developers.

"SignForge API error (403)" Your API key doesn't have permission for this operation. Check your key's scopes.

"SignForge API error (429)" You've hit the rate limit. Wait a moment and try again.
