Cardly for AI agents
Cardly helps businesses send real, physical greeting cards to customers, aiming to stand out from crowded inboxes with something that lands in a mailbox. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Cardly.
Check account credit balance
Check the remaining account balance before sending a batch of physical cards.
Generate a card preview
Generate a preview of a card's design and message before it gets sent to print.
Confirm before deleting an invitation
Confirm before deleting a pending invitation, since it can't be recovered once removed.
29 Cardly actions, graded by risk.
Every Cardly action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Webhook” can wait for the user, and “delete User” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Cardly through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('cardly', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // create_webhook destructive: 'deny', // delete_user }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Cardly connects.
Users add their Cardly api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
The same Cardly connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- API key
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan
Use Cardly from any agent.
Cardly and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Cardly with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Cardly to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Cardly actions you allow.
How do users connect Cardly?
Users add their Cardly api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
Which Cardly actions can my agent take?
29 in total: 18 read, 6 write and 5 destructive, such as “create Webhook”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Cardly?
Yes. Actions like “delete User” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call Cardly too?
Yes. The same Cardly connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Cardly into your agent.
