# Stripe Agent Toolkit
The Stripe Agent Toolkit enables popular agent frameworks including Model Context Protocol (MCP), OpenAI's Agent SDK, LangChain, CrewAI, and Vercel's AI SDK to integrate with Stripe APIs through function calling. The
library is not exhaustive of the entire Stripe API. It includes support for MCP, Python, and TypeScript and is built directly on top of the Stripe [Python][python-sdk] and [Node][node-sdk] SDKs.
Included below are basic instructions, but refer to the [MCP](/tools/modelcontextprotocol) [Python](/tools/python), [TypeScript](/tools/typescript) packages for more information.
## Model Context Protocol
Stripe hosts a remote MCP server at `https://mcp.stripe.com`. This allows secure MCP client access via OAuth. View the docs [here](https://docs.stripe.com/mcp#remote).
The Stripe Agent Toolkit also exposes tools in the [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.com/) format. Or, to run a local Stripe MCP server using npx, use the following command:
```bash
npx -y @stripe/mcp --tools=all --api-key=YOUR_STRIPE_SECRET_KEY
```
## Python
### Installation
You don't need this source code unless you want to modify the package. If you just
want to use the package run:
```sh
pip install stripe-agent-toolkit
```
#### Requirements
- Python 3.11+
### Usage
The library needs to be configured with your account's secret key which is
available in your [Stripe Dashboard][api-keys].
```python
from stripe_agent_toolkit.openai.toolkit import StripeAgentToolkit
stripe_agent_toolkit = StripeAgentToolkit(
secret_key="sk_test_...",
configuration={
"actions": {
"payment_links": {
"create": True,
},
}
},
)
```
The toolkit works with OpenAI's Agent SDK, LangChain, and CrewAI and can be passed as a list of tools. For example:
```python
from agents import Agent
stripe_agent = Agent(
name="Stripe Agent",
instructions="You are an expert at integrating with Stripe",
tools=stripe_agent_toolkit.get_tools()
)
```
Examples for OpenAI's Agent SDK,LangChain, and CrewAI are included in [/examples](/tools/python/examples).
#### Context
In some cases you will want to provide values that serve as defaults when making requests. Currently, the `account` context value enables you to make API calls for your [connected accounts](https://docs.stripe.com/connect/authentication).
```python
stripe_agent_toolkit = StripeAgentToolkit(
secret_key="sk_test_...",
configuration={
"context": {
"account": "acct_123"
}
}
)
```
## TypeScript
### Installation
You don't need this source code unless you want to modify the package. If you just
want to use the package run:
```
npm install @stripe/agent-toolkit
```
#### Requirements
- Node 18+
### Usage
The library needs to be configured with your account's secret key which is available in your [Stripe Dashboard][api-keys]. Additionally, `configuration` enables you to specify the types of actions that can be taken using the toolkit.
```typescript
import { StripeAgentToolkit } from "@stripe/agent-toolkit/langchain";
const stripeAgentToolkit = new StripeAgentToolkit({
secretKey: process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY!,
configuration: {
actions: {
paymentLinks: {
create: true,
},
},
},
});
```
#### Tools
The toolkit works with LangChain and Vercel's AI SDK and can be passed as a list of tools. For example:
```typescript
import { AgentExecutor, createStructuredChatAgent } from "langchain/agents";
const tools = stripeAgentToolkit.getTools();
const agent = await createStructuredChatAgent({
llm,
tools,
prompt,
});
const agentExecutor = new AgentExecutor({
agent,
tools,
});
```
#### Context
In some cases you will want to provide values that serve as defaults when making requests. Currently, the `account` context value enables you to make API calls for your [connected accounts](https://docs.stripe.com/connect/authentication).
```typescript
const stripeAgentToolkit = new StripeAgentToolkit({
secretKey: process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY!,
configuration: {
context: {
account: "acct_123",
},
},
});
```
#### Metered billing
For Vercel's AI SDK, you can use middleware to submit billing events for usage. All that is required is the customer ID and the input/output meters to bill.
```typescript
import { StripeAgentToolkit } from "@stripe/agent-toolkit/ai-sdk";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import {
generateText,
experimental_wrapLanguageModel as wrapLanguageModel,
} from "ai";
const stripeAgentToolkit = new StripeAgentToolkit({
secretKey: process.env.STRIPE_SECRET_KEY!,
configuration: {
actions: {
paymentLinks: {
create: true,
},
},
},
});
const model = wrapLanguageModel({
model: openai("gpt-4o"),
middleware: stripeAgentToolkit.middleware({
billing: {
customer: "cus_123",
meters: {
input: "input_tokens",
output: "output_tokens",
},
},
}),
});
```
