What is the 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.
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.
How it works
- Add the Recurly MCP server to your authorized module list.
- Configure the server using your specific Recurly subdomain alongside your Private API Key.
- Chat seamlessly with your AI to process operations like revoking a subscription instance or querying for a customer's missing invoice.
Who is this for?
- RevOps & Finance Teams — Pull billing analytics, track active subscription statuses, and instantly generate plan insights via conversational commands during reviews.
- Customer Support Agents — Quickly verify if an account holds a successful invoice payment or pause/cancel client subscriptions mid-chat without escalating to billing engineers.
- Software Developers — Interact safely with Recurly limits, list the ID structures of catalog plans, and test provisioning logic endpoints directly from the code editor.

Frequently asked questions
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.
How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?
When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.
What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?
Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.
Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?
Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.
Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?
Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.
Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?
Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
Server not appearing after restart
Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).
Authentication error
Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.
Tools not showing in chat
Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
