About

Ironclad ships in the w6w first-party pack. It declares 28 actions, 2 health checks, and the host runs its code in a sandbox that never sees the credential.

Overview

Ironclad is a contract lifecycle management platform: contracts are requested through launch forms, move through review, approval and signature as workflows, and land in a searchable repository of records tied to the legal entities behind them.

This app covers the three objects a contract automation touches. Workflows: launch one from a template, read and update its attributes, follow approvals, comments and signers, and pause, resume or cancel it. Records: list, read, create, update and delete the repository’s contract records, and read the record schema so a workflow knows which properties exist. Entities: the counterparties and subsidiaries that records point at.

It also manages webhooks, so a flow can react to a contract being signed instead of polling for it, and reports the token’s own user and granted scopes. Connections use OAuth 2.0, either the authorization code grant for a signed-in user or the client credentials grant for a service identity acting as a named user, against the US, EU or demo environment.

Build with Ironclad

Three routes to the same 28 actions. The Workflow tab is generated from Ironclad's own manifest and carries its real ids, so it is copy-pasteable; the Code and CLI examples are the same call for any action on any app, so every app-specific value in them is a blank you fill in.

Create Entity

entity-create

Create a legal entity. Properties are typed objects keyed by property id, like record properties.

Delete Entity

entity-delete

Delete a legal entity.

Get Entity

entity-get

Fetch one entity with its status, relationship types and properties.

List Entities

entity-list

List the legal entities (counterparties, subsidiaries) that workflows and records refer to.

Create Record

record-create

Create a contract record by naming its type and metadata properties. Each property is a typed object, for example {"counterpartyName": {"type": "string", "value": "Acme"}}.

Delete Record

record-delete

Permanently delete a repository record.

Get Record

record-get

Fetch one repository record with its properties, attachments and links.

List Records

record-list

List contract records in the repository, with filtering, search and sorting. Sorted by agreement date, newest first, unless told otherwise.

Get Record Schema

record-schema-get

List the record types and every property (id, display name, type) the repository defines. Use it to build the `properties` for Create Record.

Update Record

record-update

Change a record's name, type, properties, links or parent/child relationships. Only the changes you name are applied; everything else is left alone.

Get Token User Info

token-info-get

Return the user, company and granted OAuth scopes behind this connection's token. Needs no resource scope, so it also answers for a connection that can do little else.

Create Webhook

webhook-create

Register an HTTPS endpoint to receive Ironclad events, such as workflow_completed or workflow_signature_packet_fully_signed. Create one webhook per set of events you want routed to a given URL.

Delete Webhook

webhook-delete

Delete a webhook so Ironclad stops sending its events.

List Webhooks

webhook-list

List the webhooks registered for the company. Webhook responses do not carry a signing secret.

Update Workflow Approval

workflow-approval-update

Approve (or reset to pending) one approval role on a workflow. Only possible during the Review step and while that approval group is active.

List Workflow Approvals

workflow-approvals-list

List a workflow's approval groups and each reviewer's status. Only triggered approvals appear; conditional ones that have not triggered are omitted.

Update Workflow Attributes

workflow-attributes-update

Set or remove attribute values on a workflow. The workflow must be in the Review step. Form validation is enforced.

Cancel Workflow

workflow-cancel

Cancel a workflow. Cancellation cannot be undone; Ironclad requires a comment.

Add Workflow Comment

workflow-comment-create

Post a comment on a workflow's activity feed, optionally as a reply. Needs the `public.records.createComments` scope (Ironclad gates this route with a records-prefixed scope).

List Workflow Comments

workflow-comments-list

List the comments on a workflow's activity feed.

Launch Workflow

workflow-create

Launch a new workflow from a template, synchronously. Pass the launch form's fields as attributes; `counterpartyName` is always required. File attachments need a multipart request this app does not make; use a workflow whose form takes no files, or upload documents separately.

Get Workflow

workflow-get

Fetch one workflow: its step, status, launch attributes, roles, approvals and signatures.

List Workflows

workflow-list

List workflows, newest page first. Without a status filter Ironclad returns only active workflows (Create, Review, Sign and Archive stages).

Pause Workflow

workflow-pause

Pause an active workflow. Ironclad requires a comment.

Resume Workflow

workflow-resume

Resume a paused workflow. Ironclad requires a comment.

Get Workflow Schema

workflow-schema-get

Fetch one workflow template's launch form: every field id, type, display name and whether it is required.

List Workflow Schemas

workflow-schemas-list

List the workflow templates you can launch, each with the fields of its launch form.

List Workflow Signers

workflow-signers-list

List the signers on a workflow and the status of their signatures.

A workflow step names the app and the action, and the editor fills in the connection when you pick one. This is the Step shape from the workflow spec, carrying Ironclad's real ids.

+23 more actions available

Every app-specific value here is a blank you have to fill in. An app action is reached through the connection that authenticates it, so the address is a connection id, not the app id — and connections belong to your account, so a public page cannot know yours. Create one for Ironclad, then fill in the three blanks: conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID, the action key, and the parameters that action declares. The call itself is real — the shape is transcribed from the studio's own snippet builder, which prints the same kind of blanks — but nothing in it is specific to Ironclad. The Workflow tab is where this app's real ids are.

Install
npm install @w6w/sdk
yarn add @w6w/sdk
pnpm add @w6w/sdk
deno add npm:@w6w/sdk
Code
import { W6wClient, isActionRun } from "@w6w/sdk";

// Reads W6W_BASE_URL and W6W_TOKEN from the environment when omitted.
const client = new W6wClient();

const envelope = await client.run({
  urn: "conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID",
  action: "entity-create",
  payload: {
    name: "<value>",
    // relationshipTypeKey: "<value>",
    // status: "<value>",
    // properties: "<value>",
  },
});

if (isActionRun(envelope)) console.log(envelope.value);
Install the CLI
npm install -g @w6w/cli
CLI
w6w run conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID --action entity-create --payload '{"name":"<value>"}'

Give an AI agent Ironclad — without giving it Ironclad's credentials. One MCP endpoint exposes every app, function and workflow the caller is entitled to, as tools it can discover and run. Access is granted per team while we onboard.

One tool call
{
  "name": "w6w_invoke",
  "arguments": {
    "ref": "app:io.w6w.ironclad#entity-create",
    "input": {
      "name": "<name>"
    }
  }
}

Every tool names its target with a single ref. The app: form above doesn't name a connection at all — the host resolves which of the caller's Ironclad connections to sign with, and refuses rather than guesses when the answer is ambiguous.

What the agent gets

Credentials it can't read

The token is attached host-side, at the moment of the call. It is never a tool argument, never in the model's context, and never in a transcript — so a prompt injection has nothing to exfiltrate.

A tool surface scoped to the caller

Tools are derived per end user from what that person has actually connected and is entitled to — not one shared bot identity carrying the union of everyone's access.

A durable workflow in one call

Multi-step work runs on the workflow engine and returns a run handle the agent can poll — retries, branching and state survive the conversation that started them.

Health-aware discovery

Ironclad's declared health checks are on the surface too, so an agent can tell "the vendor is down" from "your credential expired" before it burns a retry on either.

The MCP surface is part of the hosted platform. Ironclad itself is MIT, and the runtime that executes it is source-available (FSL).

Request MCP access

Health checks

Ironclad declares its own checks, so its health is a property of the app rather than something the host guesses at.
