SignWell + ChatGPT

Drive SignWell (developer-friendly e-signature) from any AI agent: documents, templates, signature requests, signers. 8 tools, API key + application ID auth.

Prerequisites

See the full setup instructions baked into the connector (visible in the in-app store when you select the connector). The required environment variables for this connector are:

SIGNWELL_API_KEY, SIGNWELL_APPLICATION_ID

Step 1 — Get credentials

signwell.com).

Setup:

  1. Sign in to https://app.signwell.com → top-right avatar → API → Create application.
  2. Note the Application ID and API Key.
  3. Set:
    • SIGNWELL_API_KEY = the API key
    • SIGNWELL_APPLICATION_ID = the application ID

Authentication: header X-Api-Key: ${SIGNWELL_API_KEY} + X-Api-Application: ${SIGNWELL_APPLICATION_ID} (both required).

test_mode: every write endpoint accepts test_mode=true to validate without sending real emails or burning credits.

Document workflow: create document from URL/upload → status='Sent' → recipients sign → status='Completed' → download PDF.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Step 2 — Install the adapter

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp/main/docker-compose.quickstart.yml -o docker-compose.yml
printf 'JWT_SECRET=%s\nENCRYPTION_KEY=%s\n' "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .env
docker compose up -d

Step 3 — Add the connector in ChatGPT

Your server URL: in AnythingMCP, open MCP Servers → the server this connector is on, and copy its URL (https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/…). Use it wherever this guide shows YOUR_SERVER_ID.

ChatGPT connects to MCP servers as custom apps in developer mode, available on paid plans (not on Free). On Business and Enterprise workspaces an admin may have to allow it first.

  1. In ChatGPT, open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
  2. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins and click +.
  3. Enter a name and a short description, e.g. Name: SignWell.
  4. Under Connection, enter the MCP server URL https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID and create the connection.
  5. When ChatGPT asks, sign in to AnythingMCP (OAuth) and allow access.
