PDFgen for AI agents

PDFgen creates PDFs from templates, HTML, markdown, or natural-language prompts and tracks account usage. Developers use it to generate documents like invoices and reports on demand. 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.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How PDFgen connects.

Users add their PDFgen 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 PDFgen connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

PDFgen and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use PDFgen with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect PDFgen 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 PDFgen actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect PDFgen?

Users add their PDFgen 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.

Q03

Which PDFgen actions can my agent take?

8 in total: 4 read, 3 write and 1 destructive, such as “create Template”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in PDFgen?

Yes. Actions like “delete Template” 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.

Q05

Can my own backend call PDFgen too?

Yes. The same PDFgen connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
