How do I find my Subdomain and API Key?

Your subdomain is the first part of your Recurly portal URL (e.g., if you log in at `myproject.recurly.com`, your subdomain is `myproject`). To get your API Key, navigate inside Recurly to Integrations > API Credentials and generate or copy your 'Private API Key'.

Can it accidentally charge my customers?

While the server can manage subscriptions (e.g., setting up a customer with a plan), it strictly follows the billing logic predefined in your Recurly catalog settings. It doesn't bypass credit card validation or execute arbitrary charges directly without a plan context.

Does cancelling a subscription remove the account entirely?

No, using `cancel_subscription` stops future renewals for that specific plan item instance. The underlying user billing account remains intact and can hold other valid subscriptions or past invoices.

About Recurly MCP Server

Connect your Recurly subscription billing and management platform securely to your conversational AI agent. Activating this integration transforms your AI into a dynamic revenue operations assistant, giving it the autonomy to look up accounts, adjust active subscription states, and analyze invoice pipelines directly from the terminal.

Pydantic AI validates every Recurly tool response against typed schemas, catching data inconsistencies at build time. Connect 10 tools through Vinkius and switch between OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini without changing your integration code. full type safety, structured output guarantees, and dependency injection for testable agents.

What you can do

Account Management — Quickly list your customer directory, view detailed billing profiles, or instantly create a new account mapping without opening the vendor console.
Subscription Operations — Easily search and read subscription lifecycle states, enroll users in fresh catalog plans, un-cancel previous subscriptions, or permanently cancel an ongoing billing mandate.
Invoice & Plan Catalogs — Retrieve the list of historical generated invoices to verify successful automated payments or pull all active billing models (Catalog Plans) to review available products.

The Recurly MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Pydantic AI in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Recurly + Pydantic AI FAQ

Common questions about integrating Recurly MCP Server with Pydantic AI.

How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?

Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.

Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?

Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.

Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?

Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your Recurly MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
