Frequently asked questions

How do I install mcp-server-stripe?

Copy the config above into your AI assistant's MCP settings file:

  • Claude Desktop: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
  • Cursor: Settings → MCP → Add Server
  • VS Code: .vscode/mcp.json
Does it require an API key?

Yes. You need to set the STRIPE_SECRET_KEY environment variable. We could not test this server without credentials, so our evaluation is based on documentation and community reports.

How were these results measured?

We run each server through a standardized test harness that:

  1. Installs the server via npx in a fresh environment
  2. Discovers available tools using the MCP SDK
  3. Executes real tasks (navigate, click, screenshot, etc.)
  4. Validates outputs with semantic assertions (not string matching)
  5. Measures latency percentiles and pass rate

All test scripts are open source on GitHub.
