Set up Cline

Add Charming as a remote MCP server in the Cline extension.

Add Charming in VS Code

  1. Open Cline and select the MCP Servers icon.

  2. Open Configure, then select Configure MCP Servers.

  3. Add this entry inside mcpServers:

    {
      "charming": {
        "url": "https://charm.ing/mcp"
      }
    }
  4. Save the file. On the first Charming tool call, approve access in the browser.

Check the connection

Ask Cline:

Use Charming to list my apps.

Cline shows the tool call in the editor. Finished apps open at their Charming URL.

See Cline’s MCP guide for its current MCP support.

Build without MCP

MCP is the shortest path here. If MCP is unavailable, or you would rather not add a server, any agent that can make HTTP requests builds the same apps through Charming’s HTTP API. See Build over the HTTP API.

Paste this instead of adding the MCP server:

Connect me to Charming and help me build my first app. Use Charming's
HTTP API. Ask before starting account pairing, wait for me to approve
it, then read https://charm.ing/docs/build-http.md and ask me what I
want to build.

Your agent shows a pairing link and a short code. Open the link, enter the code if asked, and approve the connection. Both paths build the same apps in the same account, so pick one.
