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

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Step 3 — Add the connector in Cursor

Cursor reads MCP servers from ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Add this entry:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anythingmcp": {
      "url": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Get your MCP API key from AnythingMCP → Profile → MCP API Keys → New Key.
  2. Save the file and restart Cursor.
  3. Open Cursor → Settings → MCP to verify SignWell is listed and "Connected".
  4. Start chatting — all SignWell tools are now invokable.
