## Install

The vendor hosts this server, so you only add its URL and nothing runs on your machine. If it needs authentication, the row above says how; OAuth servers prompt you on first connection.

### Claude Code

`shell`

```
claude mcp add --transport http --scope project stripe https://mcp.stripe.com
```

### Cursor

`.cursor/mcp.json`

```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stripe": {
      "url": "https://mcp.stripe.com"
    }
  }
}
```

### Codex

`~/.codex/config.toml`

```
[mcp_servers.stripe]
url = "https://mcp.stripe.com"
```

### Run it locally instead (Cursor)

`.cursor/mcp.json`

```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stripe": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@stripe/mcp",
        "--api-key=YOUR_STRIPE_SECRET_KEY"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

[Config for other clients →](https://dotsagent.io/mcp/config#add=stripe)

A full secret key gives the agent wide control of your Stripe account; use a restricted key with only the permissions it needs.
