Ironclad is a contract lifecycle management platform for legal and business teams. The Ironclad MCP server lets you search, update, and monitor workflows and records using natural language.

What Can It Do?

  • Search and monitor workflows with filters and pagination
  • Manage approvals and signatures to keep deals moving
  • Read and update records with properties and relationships
  • Post comments and track collaboration

Where to Use It

Add Ironclad as a tool to any agent. The agent can then manage your contracts conversationally, choosing the right actions based on context. To add an MCP tool to your agent:
  1. Open your agent’s configuration
  2. Click Add toolsConnect an app with MCP
  3. Search for the integration and select it
  4. Authenticate with your account
You can control which tools your agent has access to. After adding an integration, click on it to enable or disable specific tools based on what your agent needs.

In Workflows (Via Agent Node)

For automated pipelines, use an Agent Node with Ironclad tools. This gives you the flexibility of an agent within a deterministic workflow.

As a Custom MCP Node

You can also create a standalone MCP node for a specific action. This generates a reusable node that performs one task, useful when you need the same operation repeatedly in workflows.
To create a custom MCP node:
  1. Go to your node library and search for the integration
  2. Click Create a node with AI
  3. Describe the specific action you want (e.g., “List workflows pending approval”)
  4. Test the node and save it for reuse
Custom MCP nodes are single-purpose by design. For tasks that require multiple steps or dynamic decision-making, use an agent instead.

Update approval:
Approve the NDA workflow for the legal role
Add a comment:
Add a comment saying "Ready for signature" to the Acme contract workflow
Search records:
Find all contracts with "subscription" in the title
Check signature status:
What's the signature status on the vendor agreement?

Troubleshooting

IssueSolution
Agent not finding the right dataUse specific workflow names or record titles
Action not completingCheck that you’ve authenticated with Ironclad
Unexpected resultsThe agent may chain multiple tools (e.g., finding a workflow first, then updating). Review the agent’s reasoning to understand its approach.
Tool not availableVerify the tool is enabled in your agent’s MCP configuration
Agents are smart enough to chain multiple API calls together. For example, asking “Approve the Acme NDA” will find the workflow first, then update the approval. If results seem off, check the agent’s step-by-step reasoning.
