Payment Ops from the Command Line
Forget logging into the Authorize.net web portal for simple tasks. With this server, you can manage transactions directly from your shell. Just run `claude run authorizenet.void_transaction --id txn_123` to cancel a payment before it settles. It's faster and scriptable. You can quickly issue a refund with `refund_transaction` or check on a customer's payment history using `get_customer_profile` without ever leaving your terminal. The output is clean and ready to be piped.
Integrate Payments into Scripts and CI/CD
Build this Authorize.net server into your deployment scripts and cron jobs. Create a shell script that pulls a list of transactions that haven't settled yet with `get_unsettled_transactions`, then processes them one by one. Because Claude Code is just a command, you can run it inside a GitHub Action, a Docker container, or a simple cron entry. It's perfect for automating financial close-of-business tasks without needing a full-blown application.
Automate End-of-Day Reporting
Set up a script that runs `get_unsettled_transactions` every night, pipes the list of transaction IDs to `get_transaction_details` in a loop, and formats the output into a CSV report. You can chain these commands together to build powerful reporting pipelines with standard Unix tools. This turns manual data pulls into a reliable, automated process you can set and forget. That's what an MCP server is for.
