### 2026-10-25 (score 61)

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (13)

### `get_organisation` (~29 tokens)

Organisation

Shows which PenlyDoc organisation the API key belongs to, its default language and its sending limit.

### `list_templates` (~48 tokens)

List templates

Lists the organisation's templates: id, name, the roles to fill (e.g. "tenant", "landlord"), the data keys to fill, and whether the template is ready to send.

### `send_from_template` (~210 tokens)

Send from a template

Creates a document from a template: one person per role, values for its data keys. With send=true PenlyDoc immediately e-mails the people with delivery EMAIL; confirm the people and values with the user first. With send=false it creates a draft the user can review in the console. Use the same externalRef/idempotencyKey to safely retry.

Input parameters:

- `data` (object): Values for the template data keys, e.g. {"Rent": "950 EUR"}
- `externalRef` (string): Your own reference, e.g. an order or contract number
- `idempotencyKey` (string)
- `message` (string)
- `roles` (object, required): Keyed by role key from list_templates, e.g. {"tenant": {"name": "Mia Novak", "email": "mia@example.com"}}
- `send` (boolean, required): true = e-mail people now; false = draft
- `templateId` (string, required)
- `title` (string)

### `send_document` (~193 tokens)

Send a document

Uploads local files (PDF, or PNG/JPEG photos of pages, joined in order) and creates a document for signature. Signature boxes come from {{sig:1}}-style tags in the PDF or from the fields argument (points, top-left origin). With send=true PenlyDoc e-mails the people right away; confirm with the user first. Without tags or fields, use send=false and let the user place the boxes in the console (the result has a link).

Input parameters:

- `data` (object): Values for {{data:Key}} tags in the PDF
- `expiresInDays` (integer)
- `externalRef` (string)
- `fields` (array)
- `files` (array, required): Local file paths
- `message` (string)
- `recipients` (array, required)
- `send` (boolean, required)
- `signingOrder` (string)
- `title` (string, required)

### `list_documents` (~53 tokens)

List documents

Lists documents sent for signature, newest first, with who has signed. Filter by status or by your externalRef.

Input parameters:

- `externalRef` (string)
- `limit` (integer)
- `status` (string)

### `get_document` (~39 tokens)

Document status

Full status of one document: each person, whether they opened, signed or declined (with the reason), and when.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required)

### `get_history` (~41 tokens)

Document history

The hash-chained history of a document: every step with time, who and IP address, and whether the chain is intact.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required)

### `send_draft` (~39 tokens)

Send a draft

Sends a DRAFT document: PenlyDoc e-mails the first people to sign. Confirm with the user first.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required)

### `send_reminder` (~37 tokens)

Remind

E-mails a reminder now to everyone whose turn it is on this document. Confirm with the user first.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required)

### `cancel_document` (~63 tokens)

Cancel a document

Cancels (voids) a document that is still being signed. Signing links stop working and the people still to act are told by e-mail. This cannot be undone; confirm with the user first.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required)
- `reason` (string, required)

### `create_signing_link` (~77 tokens)

Signing link for an embedded signer

Creates a one-hour signing link for a person with delivery EMBEDDED, to open in your own app or hand to that person. The link lets whoever has it sign as that person: share it only with them.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required)
- `recipientId` (string, required)
- `returnUrl` (string)

### `download_signed_pdf` (~64 tokens)

Download the signed PDF

Saves the sealed, signed PDF (with the certificate of completion as last page) of a COMPLETED document to a local file.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required)
- `saveTo` (string, required): Local path for the PDF, e.g. ./signed/contract.pdf

### `verify_pdf` (~53 tokens)

Check a signed PDF

Checks a local signed PDF: is the seal intact, when was it sealed, who signed. Works for any PDF; nothing is stored. No API key needed.

Input parameters:

- `file` (string, required): Local path of the PDF

### Is the PenlyDoc MCP server safe to use?

PenlyDoc scores 67 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We recorded 6 known advisories against it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

PenlyDoc exposes 13 tools: get_organisation, list_templates, send_from_template, send_document, list_documents, and 8 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 946 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the PenlyDoc MCP server still maintained?

PenlyDoc is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the PenlyDoc MCP server under?

PenlyDoc declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
