QuickBooks在线会计MCP服务器

QuickBooks Online MCP Server

Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the QuickBooks Online Accounting API. Exposes 130+ tools across 22 QBO entities plus 10 financial reports for Claude and other MCP-compatible clients.

Features

• Interactive invoice card (MCP Apps, SEP-1865): qbo_invoices_get renders as a read-only interactive card in MCP Apps hosts (Claude Desktop/web) — customer, status, dates, line items, totals — neutral by default, brandable via window.__BRAND__ injection or MCP_BRAND_* env vars. Non-App hosts see the same JSON payload (plus a _card field).

One-Click Deployment

Note on registry auth: This server depends only on public npm packages, so the Cloudflare and DigitalOcean cloud builders install its dependencies anonymously — no token is required for one-click deploy. (If a future release adds a private @wyre-ai/* dependency, you would supply a GitHub PAT with read:packages as a build variable — NODE_AUTH_TOKEN for Cloudflare Workers, a build-time GITHUB_TOKEN secret for DigitalOcean.)

Installing the published package: The released package is published to the GitHub Packages npm registry, which requires authentication on every install (even for public packages). To install it, authenticate npm to npm.pkg.github.com with a GitHub PAT that has read:packages:

复制

export NODE_AUTH_TOKEN=$(gh auth token)
npm install @wyre-ai/qbo-mcp

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Node.js >= 20
• QuickBooks Online OAuth2 app credentials (requires an Intuit developer account)

Install and Build

npm install
npm run build

Run (stdio mode)

QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token QBO_REALM_ID=your-realm-id npm start

Run (HTTP mode)

HTTP refuses to start until CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET is set. The listener defaults to 127.0.0.1:8080.

CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET="$CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET" \
  MCP_TRANSPORT=http \
  QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token \
  QBO_REALM_ID=your-realm-id \
  npm start

Local HTTP without a secret is development-only. It binds 127.0.0.1 only and logs a warning. A non-loopback MCP_HTTP_HOST is ignored and the override is logged:

MCP_TRANSPORT=http MCP_ALLOW_INSECURE_DEV=1 \
  QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token \
  QBO_REALM_ID=your-realm-id \
  npm start

Docker

The image listens on 0.0.0.0 inside the container (MCP_HTTP_HOST) and defaults to AUTH_MODE=gateway. Publish the port on loopback and pass a real S2S secret. In gateway mode the access token and realm id arrive on each request as X-Qbo-Access-Token and X-Qbo-Realm-Id; they are not read from the environment.

# Generate the secret first: openssl rand -hex 32
docker build -t qbo-mcp .
docker run \
  -e CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET \
  -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \
  qbo-mcp

Compose refuses to start when CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET is unset, defaults AUTH_MODE to gateway, does not inject QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN or QBO_REALM_ID, and publishes 127.0.0.1:8080:8080:

CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET="$CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET" docker compose up

Single-tenant HTTP (AUTH_MODE=env) still requires the S2S secret, then uses QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN and QBO_REALM_ID:

docker run \
  -e CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET \
  -e AUTH_MODE=env \
  -e QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token \
  -e QBO_REALM_ID=your-realm-id \
  -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \
  qbo-mcp

Environment Variables

Authentication

The server does not handle the OAuth flow — it consumes a pre-obtained access token. Two modes:

env mode (process default). Token comes from QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN (or from the file named by QBO_CREDENTIALS_FILE, which wins when both are set). Single tenant. The Docker image and Compose file default to gateway mode instead.

gateway mode. Token comes from per-request HTTP headers, isolated through AsyncLocalStorage so concurrent requests never share credentials. Set AUTH_MODE=gateway and send X-Qbo-Access-Token and X-Qbo-Realm-Id. A request missing either header gets HTTP 401 and does not fall back to QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN / QBO_REALM_ID in the process environment.

/health stays unauthenticated and does not read credentials. The stdio transport does not use CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET.

HTTP authentication

With MCP_TRANSPORT=http and CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET set, every /mcp request must include X-Gateway-S2S. The check is verifyS2sHeader in src/s2s-verify.ts: the header value is t=<unix seconds>,v1=<hex>, where the hex is HMAC-SHA256 of the literal string t=<unix seconds> keyed with CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET (64 lowercase hex characters). The timestamp must be within 300 seconds of the server clock. A missing or invalid header returns HTTP 401 before vendor credentials are read.

TS=$(date +%s)
SIG=$(printf 't=%s' "$TS" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hmac "$CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET" -hex | awk '{print $NF}')
curl -sS http://127.0.0.1:8080/mcp \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -H "X-Gateway-S2S: t=${TS},v1=${SIG}" \
  -H "X-Qbo-Access-Token: $QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  -H "X-Qbo-Realm-Id: $QBO_REALM_ID" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

In AUTH_MODE=gateway, those X-Qbo-* headers are the only credential source for the request. With AUTH_MODE=env, the signed request uses QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN and QBO_REALM_ID from the environment when the headers are absent.

When QBO rejects the access token, the server returns an MCP error whose text begins with the literal prefix QBO_UNAUTHORIZED:. The intended contract is that the gateway detects this prefix, refreshes the OAuth token, and retries the request.

Token rotation (env mode)

QBO access tokens expire after ~60 minutes, so env-mode deployments typically rotate them with a cron job. A rotated token in a Docker env_file never reaches a running container: Docker injects env_file only at container creation, so docker restart keeps the old environment and the refresh loop silently becomes a no-op until calls start failing with QBO_UNAUTHORIZED / Token revoked (#63).

Set QBO_CREDENTIALS_FILE to skip environment reinjection entirely. The server re-reads the file on every request, so a rotation takes effect immediately — no restart or recreate at all:

# Single-tenant HTTP. This is separate from the gateway Compose service,
# which does not set QBO_* credentials.
services:
  qbo-mcp:
    image: ghcr.io/wyre-ai/qbo-mcp
    ports:
      - "127.0.0.1:8080:8080"
    environment:
      MCP_TRANSPORT: http
      AUTH_MODE: env
      MCP_HTTP_HOST: 0.0.0.0
      CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET: ${CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET:?set CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET}
      QBO_CREDENTIALS_FILE: /secrets/qbo.env
    volumes:
      - ./secrets:/secrets:ro   # mount the DIRECTORY, not the file

Your refresh job then just rewrites ./secrets/qbo.env (dotenv format: QBO_ACCESS_TOKEN=..., optionally QBO_REALM_ID=... and QBO_ENV=...) and is done — drop the docker restart from the script. Mount the containing directory rather than the file itself: tools like sed -i replace the file's inode, and a single-file bind mount would keep pointing at the old one. If the file is missing or unreadable, tool calls fail loudly instead of silently falling back to a stale environment token.

If you'd rather keep plain env_file injection, the rotation script must recreate the container — docker compose up -d --force-recreate — a docker restart is never enough.

Sandbox Testing

Set QBO_ENV=sandbox (env mode) or X-Qbo-Environment: sandbox (gateway mode) to target Intuit's sandbox API at https://sandbox-quickbooks.api.intuit.com instead of production. Unrecognized values fail loudly (no silent fallback to production).

Available Tools

Tools are organized by domain. Call qbo_navigate with a domain name (e.g. customers, vendors, bills) to discover the tools in that domain. All tools are always callable — navigation is a discovery aid, not a prerequisite.

Entities (config-driven, 122 tools across 22 entities)

Each entity exposes some subset of list, get, create, update, void, search. Transactional entities support startDate/endDate filtering on the list operation. Updates are sparse and require the current SyncToken from a prior get. Void is exposed only where the QBO Accounting API supports it (Invoice uses ?operation=void; Payment uses ?operation=update&include=void). Customer has no void or delete — set Active to false on update to deactivate.

Sales workflow

• qbo_customers_* — list, get, create, update, search (no void; deactivate with Active: false)

• qbo_estimates_* — list, get, create, update
• qbo_sales_receipts_* — list, get, create, update
• qbo_credit_memos_* — list, get, create, update
• qbo_refund_receipts_* — list, get, create, update
• qbo_payments_* — list, get, create, update, void

Purchase workflow

• qbo_vendors_* — list, get, create, update, search
• qbo_bills_* — list, get, create, update, search

Legacy expense tools (backwards compatibility)

qbo_expenses_list_purchases, qbo_expenses_get_purchase, qbo_expenses_list_bills, qbo_expenses_get_bill remain available. New work should use the dedicated qbo_purchases_* and qbo_bills_* tool families, which add create/update/search.

Testing

npm test                   # unit suite — fast, no credentials needed
npm run test:integration   # hits a real QBO sandbox; skipped without creds

The integration suite calls one read tool per entity tier (customers, vendors, accounts, items, journal entries, company info) against Intuit's sandbox API. It only runs when both QBO_SANDBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN and QBO_SANDBOX_REALM_ID are present in the environment. CI wires these from the matching repo secrets and skips the job (with a clear notice) when they're absent — so dependabot/fork PRs don't fail.
