Audit Subscription Contracts in VS Code

The `list_contracts` MCP tool exports active billing rules and subscription states directly to your VS Code workspace. Your engineering team can inspect contract histories and verification logs without leaving their development environment. Use `get_contract` to pull specific gateway histories when debugging payment failures. This lets VS Code Copilot analyze real billing errors, giving your team the exact context needed to patch billing bugs quickly.

Sync Customer Profiles with VS Code Copilot

`list_customers` queries your CRM and billing records inside the headless Maxio platform. Copilot reads this list to help you build sync scripts that keep your local SQL database aligned with your billing ledger. If you find a mismatch, run `update_customer` directly from the chat panel to correct the record. For automated testing, `create_customer` lets you provision test accounts on the fly to verify your signup pipelines.

Generate and Validate Invoices via MCP Server

`create_invoice` generates SaaS invoices that respect your plan math and discount rules. Copilot uses this tool to test custom billing triggers, ensuring your code issues correct invoices when users upgrade their tiers. To monitor cash flow, `list_invoices` retrieves active invoice arrays and holding states. If an account is canceled, `delete_customer` removes the profile and extracts churn flags to keep your revenue reports accurate.
