Stripe

Query payments, customers, and invoices from Stripe.

Stripe's MCP skill lets an assistant work with your Stripe account: look up payments, list customers, create payment links or invoices. Use a restricted or test-mode API key first — the skill can perform real account actions. Powerful for "how much revenue did product X make last month?" without opening the dashboard.

Install Stripe

You need: an AI app that supports skills (pick yours above) · Node.js (LTS) — one-time install from nodejs.org. Check with `node -v` in a terminal. · An API key (STRIPE_SECRET_KEY) — free tier available, get it at https://dashboard.stripe.com/apikeys

Open Settings → Developer → Edit Config in Claude Desktop (this opens claude_desktop_config.json) and merge this block, then fully restart the app:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stripe": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@stripe/mcp",
        "--tools=all"
      ],
      "env": {
        "STRIPE_SECRET_KEY": "YOUR_STRIPE_SECRET_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Before saving, replace YOUR_STRIPE_SECRET_KEY with your key from Stripe dashboard → API keys (free tier).
