Stripe MCP server

Stripe × VS Code

Use the Stripe MCP server
in VS Code

Look up customers, payments, and subscriptions in Stripe; issue refunds when needed. This guide connects Stripe to VS Code (GitHub Copilot's agent mode) through a governed gateway — one URL that also works in every other MCP client you use, with your rules and a full log attached.

Live-probed · Security-scanned · OAuth sign-in

Setup: Stripe in VS Code

VS Code adds MCP servers via MCP server configuration. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Connect Stripe to your free gate gateway from the verified directory.
  2. On your gate overview, click 'Add to VS Code' — VS Code prompts to add the gateway as an HTTP MCP server.
  3. Confirm and approve the sign-in.
  4. Copilot's agent mode can now use Stripe — logged and governed through your gateway.

What to ask once it’s connected

How much revenue did we make this week?
Find this customer's subscription and their last invoice.
Which subscriptions failed to renew this month?
Refund this payment and note the reason.

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same Stripe connection works in Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor too — no per-client re-wiring.

Rules before regret

Allow, ask, or block every tool Stripe exposes — reads can flow freely while writes require your approval.

Every call logged

A plain-language activity log of everything VS Code did with Stripe — searchable, exportable, auditable.

Scanned and probed

Stripe passed a live handshake probe and a security scan before listing — and drift detection watches it after you connect.
