Kartra API

Kartra's inbound developer API. One endpoint, POST only, form-encoded, with the operation selected by `actions[].cmd`. Twenty-nine documented commands cover leads, tags, lists, automation sequences, custom fields, lead scoring, pages, calendar bookings, payment transactions and recurring subscriptions. Every call carries three credentials in the body — the developer's `app_id` plus the end user's `api_key` and `api_password` — and acts on exactly one lead. Rate limited to 20 calls per second per App.

  note: 'Renamed from MCPServer 2026-09-03 (roadmap#247): the manifest self-describes as status: candidate
    — a tool list derived from the published API contracts, not an existing server. The scorer already
    read the manifest and reported mcp_server correctly; the MCPServer type was crediting the artifact-type
    surfaces with a server that does not exist.'
