Use the Postman plugin for coding agents

The Postman plugin connects your coding agent to your Postman Workspace. Bootstrap a repository’s Postman setup, mock an API before it’s implemented, run collection and governance checks in CI, monitor a live endpoint, and publish generated API documentation. Follow the steps for your agent: Claude Code or Cursor.

Claude Code

Install the plugin using Claude Code’s plugin marketplace:

claude plugin install postman@claude-plugins-official

Cursor

Install the plugin from the Cursor marketplace:

/add-plugin postman

Use the plugin

Once you’re set up, you can describe what you want to do using natural language, in any of the supported agents. For example:

The plugin detects the local OpenAPI specification and creates or updates a Postman Collection in your workspace.

How it works

The plugin automatically routes each task to whichever tool is best suited to complete it, so you don’t have to choose yourself. It sends your agent’s requests to the Postman CLI whenever the CLI can complete them, and falls back to the Postman MCP Server only for tasks the CLI doesn’t support.
