usefulapiCXT Software MCP server
Track and search CXT courier orders, check drivers, propose and save order and route plans. Hosted by usefulapi: connect it to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client.
What can I ask?
Turn on the CXT Software connector, then ask in plain words. The AI picks the tools.
- Track shipment ABC123 and tell me when it was picked up and delivered.
- Show all orders for postal code 10001 between October 1 and October 7.
- Validate drivers 101, 102 and 103 for planning and tell me who is unavailable.
- Plan orders 900001 to 900010 onto drivers 101 and 102 for today, 8am to 6pm, and show me the proposal.
What you can do with CXT Software in Claude and ChatGPT
For courier and delivery companies that dispatch on-demand orders and routes with CXT Software.
Track a shipment by tracking number
The AI tracks orders and route stops by parcel reference, barcode or Reference1 and Reference2, and returns status events and proof of delivery as far as your login allows.
Search orders and route stops by place or date
The AI searches orders and route stops by address, city, state, postal code or date range, and opens single orders with charges and proof of delivery.
Check whether drivers can be planned
The AI checks drivers for vehicle and HR violations, and one driver against specific orders for missing capabilities such as Hazmat or Lift Gate. You see who is unavailable.
Propose a plan for orders or routes
The AI proposes which driver takes which orders, or a new stop order for existing routes, and can re-optimize one plan. It shows times, distance and unassigned stops. Nothing is dispatched.
Dispatch an approved order or route plan
The AI saves a plan you approved. Orders go to drivers, or route stops are moved and re-sequenced, and drivers get the work in the driver app.
Changes dataHow do I connect CXT Software?
Before you connect
The login page asks for your User type, User name and Password.
Optional: CXT account id and Server address (own domain only).
Your account id is the 4 digits in your CXT address: for 09870.cxtsoftware.net it is 0987 (drop the trailing 0). If X Dispatch runs on your own domain, leave it empty and fill in the server address. Type the user name without the XDISPATCH- or INET- prefix. An Operations App user can look up orders and plan routes (route planning needs the Itinerary Planning permission); an internet user (with "Allow Web Service API" on) sees the orders of its customer account. A dedicated user with only the permissions you want makes its activity easy to track. CXT bills API calls to your account (the first 5,000 credits a month are free) and the web service needs the integrations option on your plan. Your password is used only to call the CXT Software API on your behalf; it is never shown to anyone.

Claude Code
Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:
Cursor
Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"cxt-software": {
"url": "https://cxt-software.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
} VS Code
Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"cxt-software": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://cxt-software.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
} Codex
Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:
Other clients
Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your User type, User name and Password. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
Pricing
| Plan | Price | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 50 tool calls / month |
| Proper user | $9/mo · $90/yr | 10,000 tool calls / month |
| Pro+per user | $39/mo · $390/yr | 100,000 tool calls / month |
Each paid plan covers this CXT Software server only. Ask your AI to run cxt_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with cxt_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with cxt_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to support@usefulapi.io.

- Track shipments
cxt_track_shipmentsTrack orders and route stops by tracking number: matches a parcel reference, a parcel item barcode, or Reference1/Reference2 of an order or route stop. Returns shipment summaries with status events and proof of delivery as far as the caller's permissions allow: an INET login sees the most detail; with an Operations App login this endpoint is called without credentials (CXT lists only internet users and anonymous callers for it), which returns the limited public tracking view. Costs 1 API credit with the vendor. - Search orders and route stops
cxt_search_shipmentsSearch orders and route stops by place, address, city, state, postal code, order template, or only by date range. tracking_type says which field search_criteria is matched against: Location (origin/destination or stop name), Address, City, State, Postal (zip or zip+4), Template (order template name), Tracking (references/barcodes) or DateOnly (no criteria: everything between begin_date and end_date). Returns shipment summaries, up to 1000 per page. An INET login sees the most detail; with an Operations App login this endpoint is called without credentials (CXT lists only internet users and anonymous callers for it), so the view is limited. Costs 1 API credit with the vendor. - List recent orders
cxt_list_recent_ordersThe most recent orders of the signed-in INTERNET user (user type INET; the orders of their account). Costs 1 API credit with the vendor. POST /v2/Shipments/Summaries with numRecentOrders. - Get order (internet user)
cxt_get_orderOne on-demand order with its status, confirmation, pickup, delivery and proof-of-delivery details, as an INTERNET user sees it (sign in with user type INET). Optionally with the itemized charges. Operations App users should use cxt_get_dispatch_order. Costs 1 API credit with the vendor. - Get order (Operations App user)
cxt_get_dispatch_orderOne on-demand order with itemized charges, as an OPERATIONS APP (X Dispatch) user sees it (sign in with user type XDISPATCH): addresses, times, driver, status events, proof of delivery. Costs 1 API credit with the vendor. - Get itinerary planning limits
cxt_get_planning_limitsThe itinerary planning limits of this X Dispatch system: maxAllowedStops (shipments x 2), maxAllowedLocations and maxAllowedPlaceholders. Needs an Operations App user with the ITINERARY_PLANNING_ACCESS permission. - Validate drivers for planning
cxt_validate_driversCheck whether drivers are available to be planned: for each driver id, vehicle violations (for example an expired inspection) and HR violations (for example not scheduled), each with isBypassable. Changes nothing. Needs ITINERARY_PLANNING_ACCESS. - Validate a driver for orders
cxt_validate_driver_for_ordersCheck one driver against specific orders: vehicle violations, HR violations and capability violations (for example Hazmat or Lift Gate that the driver lacks). Changes nothing. Needs ITINERARY_PLANNING_ACCESS. - Plan orders onto drivers
cxt_plan_ordersGenerate a proposed itinerary that assigns on-demand orders to drivers (pickup and delivery stops in sequence, with times, distance and unassigned stops). This only PROPOSES a plan: nothing is dispatched until cxt_save_order_plan is called. Needs ITINERARY_PLANNING_ACCESS. Check the limits with cxt_get_planning_limits first. - Re-optimize one driver's order plan
cxt_optimize_order_planRe-optimize a single driver's plan after manual changes (proposal only: nothing is dispatched until cxt_save_order_plan). Needs ITINERARY_PLANNING_ACCESS. - Plan route stops
cxt_plan_routesGenerate a proposed re-sequencing of the stops of existing routes for one route date (stops move between the output routes, with times, distance and unassigned stops). Proposal only: nothing changes until cxt_save_route_plan is called. Needs ITINERARY_PLANNING_ACCESS. - Re-optimize one route
cxt_optimize_route_planRe-optimize a single route after manual changes (proposal only: nothing changes until cxt_save_route_plan). Needs ITINERARY_PLANNING_ACCESS.

- Save order plan (dispatch orders to drivers)
cxt_save_order_planCOMMIT an order plan: assigns the orders to the drivers and DISPATCHES them (drivers receive the work in the driver app; customers may be notified by the system's own status rules). Use only after the user has seen and approved the plan from cxt_plan_orders / cxt_optimize_order_plan. Pass each driver's stops from the plan reply: id, type (PICKUP or DELIVERY), sequence and from (the scheduled time). Response is empty on success (204). Needs ITINERARY_PLANNING_ACCESS. - Save route plan (reassign route stops)
cxt_save_route_planCOMMIT a route plan for one route date: moves and re-sequences route stops as in the plan and DISPATCHES the changed routes to drivers. Use only after the user has seen and approved the plan from cxt_plan_routes / cxt_optimize_route_plan. Pass each route's stops from the plan reply: id, sequence and from (the scheduled time). Response is empty on success (204). Needs ITINERARY_PLANNING_ACCESS.
Your usefulapi plan · 4
- Usage status (free-tier meter)
cxt_usage_statusReport the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter. - Request a missing feature
cxt_request_featureTell usefulapi that the user needs something the CXT Software (X Dispatch) tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter. - Upgrade to Pro or Pro+
cxt_upgradeGet a paid plan for CXT Software (X Dispatch) (the free tier caps monthly usage). Pro: 10,000 tool calls a month, for normal use — plan "monthly" ($9/month) or "yearly" ($90/year, 2 months free). Pro+: 100,000 tool calls a month, for automations and heavy use — plan "plus" ($39/month) or "plus_yearly" ($390/year). Without a plan it returns both Pro and Pro+, each with a payment link, for the user to choose; with a plan, one link. An existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place: call without confirm first, as the reply states the exact charge for this account (the price difference for the rest of the period, or in a free Pro trial the full Pro+ price, as the trial ends); then call with confirm: true. Cancel any time: the plan then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. A link opens Stripe Checkout in the browser; after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter. - Cancel the Pro subscription
cxt_cancel_subscriptionCancel the caller's CXT Software (X Dispatch) Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run cxt_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.
FAQ
What can I do with CXT Software in Claude or ChatGPT?
Track a shipment by tracking number. Search orders and route stops by place or date. Check whether drivers can be planned. Propose a plan for orders or routes. Dispatch an approved order or route plan. See what you can do for the details.
Is this an official CXT Software product?
No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by CXT Software. The server calls the CXT Software API with your own CXT Software access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.
Can I connect CXT Software to Claude or ChatGPT?
Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.
What do I need to connect?
The login page asks for your User type, User name and Password. See Before you connect for where to find them.
Do I put my CXT Software key or an Authorization header in the client config?
No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your User type, User name and Password. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.
How do you keep my CXT Software credentials?
The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the CXT Software API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in CXT Software.
Can the AI change my CXT Software data?
Yes, if you approve it. 2 of the 14 CXT Software tools can create or change data. The other 12 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.
What does it cost?
The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with 10,000 tool calls / month. Pro+ costs $39/mo or $390/yr, with 100,000 tool calls / month. Each subscription covers this CXT Software server only. Cancel any time: your paid plan then runs to the end of the paid period. Run cxt_usage_status to see how many calls you used.
How do I subscribe or cancel?
Ask the AI to run cxt_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. After you confirm, your existing subscription changes in place, keeps its billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. To cancel, run cxt_cancel_subscription. Your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period.
What if a CXT Software tool that I need is missing?
Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with cxt_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.
Which AI clients can I use?
Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.
This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
