ConnectWise CPQ (Sell/Quosal) API fundamentals: three-part Basic auth built from an access key plus an API key pair, the versioned content type, the flat 25-tool `cpq_*` surface, Manage-style `conditions` filtering, `includeFields` trimming of the 200+ property views, page/pageSize paging over bare arrays, RFC 6902 JSON Patch updates, and the endpoints CPQ deliberately does not expose.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# ConnectWise CPQ MCP Tools & API Patterns ## Overview ConnectWise CPQ (formerly ConnectWise Sell, originally Quosal) is the quoting and proposal tool in the ConnectWise stack. The REST API is deliberately small and quote-centric: 19 paths / 29 operations covering quotes, their line items, tabs, customers and payment terms, plus a handful of lookup lists. The MCP server exposes it as 25 flat tools, all prefixed `cpq_`. CPQ is not ConnectWise PSA. It has its own host, its own auth scheme (no `clientId`), and a much narrower surface — pair it with the `connectwise-psa` plugin when a workflow needs opportunities, products, or agreements. ## Anti-triggers "ConnectWise" brands three products with three unrelated APIs, and their credentials are not interchangeable. PSA's and CPQ's Basic tokens are the trap: both are `base64(<something>+<publicKey>:<privateKey>)`, so a company ID and an access key look identical in the same slot. Authenticating against the wrong product fails as a `401` — or a `500` when a header is absent entirely — which reads like a permissions problem on an account that is in fact fine. …

How to install
mdr add wyre-ai/msp-claude-plugins/ConnectWise CPQ API Patterns@sha256:13fbc0c24a03466bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260804.792c422, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
