## MCP tools (15)

### `simplepractice_session_status` (~65 tokens)

Report whether this server holds a Client Portal session, for which practice, and how that practice was determined (from a sign-in link, from SIMPLEPRACTICE_PRACTICE, or remembered from the stored session). Reads local state only — makes no network call.

### `simplepractice_request_sign_in_link` (~180 tokens)

Ask SimplePractice to email a sign-in link to a Client Portal address. The portal has no password — this is how you sign in. Sends a real email and is rate-limited per email address AND per IP, so it requires confirm:true. A success does not prove the address has an account: the API answers identically for unknown addresses by design.

Input parameters:

- `confirm` (boolean): Must be true to proceed. Without this, the tool returns a preview.
- `email` (string, required): The email address the Client Portal is registered to.
- `practice` (string): The practice whose portal to sign in to — the slug ("achievebalancetherapy"), the host, or the portal URL. Only needed when this server does not know the practice yet; signing in with an emailed link…

### `simplepractice_verify_sign_in_token` (~104 tokens)

Exchange an emailed sign-in link (or the token in it) for a Client Portal session. Accepts the whole link or just the part after the "#". Prefer passing the WHOLE link: its address names the practice, so no practice has to be configured, and this server remembers it afterwards. Tokens are single-use and last 24 hours.

Input parameters:

- `link` (string, required): The sign-in link from the email, or just the token after the "#".

### `simplepractice_verify_sign_in_pin` (~61 tokens)

Exchange a 6-digit Client Portal sign-in PIN for a session, for practices that email a code instead of a link. Single-use.

Input parameters:

- `email` (string, required): The address the PIN was sent to.
- `pin` (string, required)

### `simplepractice_sign_out` (~21 tokens)

Discard the stored Client Portal session from local state.

### `simplepractice_get_account` (~58 tokens)

The practice, the signed-in client, and every client this login can see. One portal login is a "client access" and may cover more than one client — a parent seeing two children, say — so clients is always a list.

### `simplepractice_list_appointments` (~133 tokens)

Appointments from the Client Portal. status "scheduled" returns confirmed/upcoming ones; "requested" returns those still awaiting the practice's confirmation. Pages by number.

Input parameters:

- `page` (integer)
- `pageSize` (integer)
- `status` (string): Which side of the pending-confirmation filter to read.
- `view` (string): Response shape: "compact" (default) drops fields the response already carries elsewhere; "full" returns every field this server understands. compact returns the slim projection where one exists and s…

### `simplepractice_list_billing_items` (~151 tokens)

Invoices, statements, superbills, receipts, or account history from the Client Portal. An empty list is a real answer — many practices bill entirely outside the portal. Pages by cursor: pass the returned nextCursor as "before".

Input parameters:

- `before` (string): Cursor for the next page — the nextCursor from a previous call.
- `kind` (string)
- `pageSize` (integer)
- `view` (string): Response shape: "compact" (default) drops fields the response already carries elsewhere; "full" returns every field this server understands. compact returns the slim projection where one exists and s…

### `simplepractice_get_billing_overview` (~98 tokens)

Balance due and per-category counts for the Client Portal account. Cheaper than paging the billing collections just to find out whether anything is there.

Input parameters:

- `view` (string): Response shape: "compact" (default) drops fields the response already carries elsewhere; "full" returns every field this server understands. compact returns the slim projection where one exists and s…

### `simplepractice_list_payment_methods` (~33 tokens)

Payment methods saved to the Client Portal — brand, last four digits, and expiry. No full card numbers.

### `simplepractice_list_document_requests` (~95 tokens)

Paperwork the practice has sent — consents, questionnaires, contact and insurance forms, Good Faith Estimates, shared files. Use outstandingOnly to see just what still needs the client's attention.

Input parameters:

- `includeBody` (boolean): Include the full document body/questions. Off by default — these are long.
- `outstandingOnly` (boolean): Return only requests that are not completed or locked.
- `pageSize` (integer)

### `simplepractice_get_document_request` (~97 tokens)

One document request in full, including its body or its questions and the answers already given.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): The document request id.
- `view` (string): Response shape: "compact" (default) drops fields the response already carries elsewhere; "full" returns every field this server understands. compact returns the slim projection where one exists and s…

### `simplepractice_list_documents` (~28 tokens)

Files the practice has shared through the Client Portal.

Input parameters:

- `pageSize` (integer)

### `simplepractice_list_announcements` (~95 tokens)

Announcements the practice has posted to the Client Portal. readAt is null on unread ones.

Input parameters:

- `pageSize` (integer)
- `view` (string): Response shape: "compact" (default) drops fields the response already carries elsewhere; "full" returns every field this server understands. compact returns the slim projection where one exists and s…

### `simplepractice_healthcheck` (~98 tokens)

Verify credentials and upstream reachability

Resolves the credential the way real tools do, then makes one authenticated request to clientsecure.me. Reports which source supplied the credential, whether clientsecure.me accepted it, the round-trip time, and a plain-English hint distinguishing 'no credential' from 'credential rejected' from 'a clientsecure.me-side problem'. Read-only; never returns the credential itself. Call this when a real tool fails and you want to know which hop broke.
