Define Pricing Standards

The `create_price_plan` tool lets you enforce company-wide pricing standards. Developers can rely on this when writing new billing features. Team members can use the MCP Server to generate code that checks entitlements via `check_entitlement`, ensuring compliance before committing.

Manage Customer Lifecycle

Use `create_customer` and `update_customer` to maintain consistent customer records across the team. This ensures everyone is working off the same source of truth. If an account needs immediate funding, the agent can generate code using `grant_credit`, which updates the wallet balance.

Audit and Track Usage

To audit usage, your team uses `list_accounts` or runs `get_metrics`. These tools allow developers to see aggregated data points in real time. The agent can also generate code that processes bulk events using `ingest_batch_events`, ensuring all required logs get committed.
