ERPNext integration

An ERPNext or Frappe site over its generic REST API: list, read, create, update and delete documents of any DocType, count matching documents, call a whitelisted server method, and upload a file. The endpoints are generic rather than per module, so the same calls reach Customer, Sales Order, Item or any custom DocType. The site host is part of the connection.

What you can do with ERPNext

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Document, 6 operations

GETcount_documents
Returns how many documents of a DocType match a filter, without listing them.
POSTcreate_document
Creates a document and returns it as stored, including its generated name.
DELETEdelete_document
Deletes a document, provided nothing else links to it.
GETget_document
Returns a full document, including the rows of its child tables.
GETlist_documents
Returns the documents of one DocType under a data array.
PUTupdate_document
Updates the fields you send on a document and returns the stored result.

Method, 2 operations

GETcall_method_get
Calls a whitelisted server method that only reads, and returns its result.
POSTcall_method_post
Calls a whitelisted server method that changes state and returns its result.

File, 1 operation

POSTupload_file
Uploads a file to the site and returns the File document that was created.

Use ERPNext from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect ERPNext in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its ERPNext operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
