Approval Link
MCP server by KurodaLab
Create and send customer quote and proof approvals, track revisions and replies, and export PDF approval records.
Connect to Approval Link
Approval Link needs sign-in. Connect with its own URL:
Your client opens KurodaLab’s sign-in the first time you use it. The token stays between your client and KurodaLab.

mcp.tc/i/approval-linkAbout
Approval Link keeps customer quote and proof approvals tied to the exact version the customer reviewed. Through its tools an assistant can draft approval requests, email them, add revisions after change requests, check customer decisions, update work progress and export a PDF record. It can also ask a named person inside the workspace for a decision.
It runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp. Access needs a KurodaLab Approval Link account; a Free plan is available, and you sign in to your workspace by email and authorize your MCP client.
What you can do
- Save customer quotes or proofs as draft approval requests
- Email a confirmed draft to the customer
- Add a new revision after the customer requests changes
- Check approval status, versions and delivery states
- Send work-progress updates after approval
- Export a PDF record of a completed approval
- Ask a named workspace person for a decision and wait for the answer

Set up
Every client connects to approval-link-account.kurodalab.com, and KurodaLab asks you to sign in the first time. Pick yours; the page remembers your choice.
Claude Code
- Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:
claude mcp add --transport http approval-link https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp- Start Claude Code, type
/mcp, pick approval-link and choose Authenticate. A browser window opens for the KurodaLab sign-in.
Add --scope user to make it available in every project, not just this one.
Claude Desktop
- Open Customize → Connectors, click + Add, then Add custom connector.
- Name it Approval Link and paste this URL:
https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp- Click Add, then Connect, and sign in when KurodaLab asks.
Claude Desktop’s JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.
claude.ai
- Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:
Add to claude.ai (opens in a new tab)
- Check that the URL reads
https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcpand click Add. - Click Connect and sign in when KurodaLab asks.
Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under Organization settings → Connectors.
ChatGPT
- On chatgpt.com, go to Plugins, select +, then Add custom MCP server.
- Enter a name for the server.
- Under Connection, paste
https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcpas the server URL, then for authentication choose OAuth. ChatGPT sends you to KurodaLab to sign in. - Check I understand and want to continue, then select Create as a plugin.
Whether you can add a custom MCP server depends on your ChatGPT plan and your workspace permissions (in Business workspaces, admins and owners can).
Cursor
Add to Cursor (opens in a new tab)
Or add it by hand to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (this project):
{
"mcpServers": {
"approval-link": {
"url": "https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp"
}
}
}Cursor shows Needs authentication next to the server. Click the button beside it to sign in.
VS Code
Install in VS Code (opens in a new tab)
Or from a terminal:
code --add-mcp '{"name":"approval-link","type":"http","url":"https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp"}'Or commit it to the repo in .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"approval-link": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp"
}
}
}VS Code asks you to sign in the first time the server starts.
Devin Desktop
- Add it to
~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json(macOS and Linux) or%APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json(Windows):
{
"mcpServers": {
"approval-link": {
"serverUrl": "https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp"
}
}
}- Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade and sign in when asked.
Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads serverUrl (or url) for remote servers.
Codex
codex mcp add approval-link --url https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp
codex mcp login approval-linkOr edit ~/.codex/config.toml directly:
[mcp_servers.approval-link]
url = "https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp"Gemini CLI
gemini mcp add --transport http approval-link https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcpThen, inside Gemini CLI, run /mcp auth approval-link to sign in.
This adds it to the current project. Add -s user to use it everywhere.
Any client
Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: serverUrl in Devin Desktop, httpUrl in Gemini CLI’s settings file.
{
"mcpServers": {
"approval-link": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp"
}
}
}Zed puts servers under context_servers in its settings. Cline needs "type": "streamableHttp", or it assumes SSE.
Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with npx -y mcp-remote https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp.
Embed
Show Approval Link in a README or on your site. Each embed links to this page, uses the server’s own URL, and sets no cookies. How embeds work
The card, the iframe and the JSON are in English. Add ?lang=it, fr, de or es to their address for another language.
README badge
[](https://mcp.tc/i/approval-link)<a href="https://mcp.tc/i/approval-link"><img src="https://mcp.tc/i/approval-link/badge.svg" alt="Approval Link on mcp.tc" height="20"></a>It follows the reader’s light or dark mode. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to fix it, or ?style=compact to show the mark without the word.
Website card
<script src="https://mcp.tc/w/approval-link.js" async></script>The card appears where the tag is. Add data-theme="dark" or data-size="compact" to the tag to change it. The file holds everything it needs, so it makes no other requests and sets no cookies.
iframe
<iframe src="https://mcp.tc/embed/approval-link" title="Approval Link on mcp.tc" width="420" height="200" loading="lazy" allow="clipboard-write" style="border:0;border-radius:8px;max-width:100%"></iframe>Use it on pages that don’t allow scripts. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to the address to fix the colors.
JSON
The listing as data for your own pages and tools: name, tagline, the server’s own URL, tools and the “Add to” links. Any site can read it (CORS is open).
https://mcp.tc/i/approval-link.jsonAI prompt
Paste this into an AI coding assistant, such as Claude Code or Cursor, and it adds the Approval Link card to your site.
Add the mcp.tc card for Approval Link, an MCP server, to my website. It is one static script: no build step, no package to install, no cookies.
Put this tag where the card should appear. The card renders right before it:
```html
<script src="https://mcp.tc/w/approval-link.js" async></script>
```
To show the card somewhere else, put this placeholder there and load the same script once, for example before `</body>`. Keep the link inside: visitors without JavaScript see it.
```html
<div data-mcptc="approval-link"><a href="https://mcp.tc/i/approval-link">Approval Link on mcp.tc</a></div>
```
Options:
- `data-theme="light"` or `"dark"` on the tag or the placeholder fixes the colors. Without it, the card follows the visitor’s light or dark mode.
- `data-size="compact"` gives a smaller card without the tagline.
- The CSS variable `--mcptc-max-width` on the placeholder or a parent sets the width (default `520px`).
- `?lang=` on the script URL sets the card’s language: `en`, `it`, `fr`, `de` or `es`.
If the site has a Content Security Policy, allow `script-src https://mcp.tc` and `img-src data:` (the icon is inline).
For a README or other Markdown docs, use the badge instead:
```markdown
[](https://mcp.tc/i/approval-link)
```

FAQ
Can I paste mcp.tc/i/approval-link into my MCP client?
No. mcp.tc links are pages, not server addresses. Connect with https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp, so your client talks to Approval Link directly. The sign-in token only works there anyway. The quick link is for sharing: it opens this page, with setup steps for every client.
Does Approval Link need an API key or a sign-in?
Yes, you need a KurodaLab account. The first time your client connects, it opens KurodaLab’s sign-in page. The token goes straight to the server’s own URL, never through mcp.tc.
Is Approval Link a remote or a local server?
Remote. KurodaLab hosts it at https://approval-link-account.kurodalab.com/mcp, and it speaks Streamable HTTP. There’s nothing to install.
What can Approval Link do?
It has 13 tools, including list_people, list_internal_decisions and get_decision. You can save customer quotes or proofs as draft approval requests, email a confirmed draft to the customer and add a new revision after the customer requests changes.
Which clients can use it?
Any client that supports remote MCP servers: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, claude.ai, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, Devin Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Zed and others. The setup steps cover each one.
Does mcp.tc track changes to Approval Link?
Yes. Approval Link’s History tab shows each change we find to its tools, down to descriptions and parameters, plus new versions and edits by its owner. Follow the listing to get an email when it changes.
Who wrote this page?
mcp.tc’s robot read Approval Link’s own metadata (its MCP handshake, tool list and public pages), and an AI model drafted the text from it. A person reviews anything the checks can’t confirm. The text can still be wrong, so if you spot a mistake, use Report this listing on this page.
mcp.tc isn’t affiliated with KurodaLab. This page was built from Approval Link’s public metadata, last checked on 31 Oct 2026, and an AI model wrote the description, so it can be wrong. Names and marks belong to their owners. Something off? Report this listing.
