Copy-paste these into Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex, or any other wired-up client. Each prompt names the MCP tools the assistant is likely to call — so you can tell what's happening under the hood.
“Build a Kuali app from the attached PDF form. Preserve the section structure with appropriate field types, show me the proposed app name and full field list before making any mutating calls, and wait for "go" before proceeding.”
Tools used: kuali_apps_create, kuali_forms_schema, kuali_forms_update, kuali_apps_publish
“Show me all curriculum course proposals still in workflow — course code, proposer, current step, and how long it's been there. Sort by longest-waiting first.”
Tools used: kuali_products_get (cm), kuali_documents_list, kuali_workflows_status
“Find sponsored-programs awards whose end date is within the next 60 days and no renewal proposal has been linked yet. Draft a spreadsheet and save it as ~/Downloads/expiring-awards.csv.”
Tools used: kuali_documents_list, kuali_export_csv
The Connector can import a CSV into any dataset. Column-to-field mapping is interactive — when there's ambiguity, the assistant walks you through it.
“Import the attached CSV into the Kuali Travel Request app, submitting every row through workflow — walk me through the column mapping first.”
Tools used: kuali_import_csv, kuali_forms_schema
“Audit the Travel Authorization app's workflow: list every step, who it routes to, and average dwell time. Recommend where an automation or auto-approval rule would remove the most waiting.”
Tools used: kuali_workflows_get, kuali_workflows_executions
“Build a submission-volume chart for the last 12 months across our five busiest apps, grouped monthly, and save it as a PNG I can drop into a slide.”
Tools used: kuali_documents_list, kuali_export_csv
“Run an instance health check: failing integrations, documents stuck in workflow over 30 days, and users deactivated this month. Summarize as a bulleted brief.”
Tools used: kuali_doctor, kuali_integrations_failures, kuali_documents_list
Name the product or app explicitly, say whether you want a list or a summary, and tell the assistant which profile to use when you have more than one.
