Square Model Context Protocol Server (Beta)

This project follows the Model Context Protocol standard, allowing AI assistants to interact with Square's connect API.

Quick Start

Get up and running with the Square MCP server using npx:

# Basic startup
npx square-mcp-server start

# With environment configuration
ACCESS_TOKEN=YOUR_SQUARE_ACCESS_TOKEN SANDBOX=true npx square-mcp-server start

# local runs
npx /path/to/project/square-mcp-server

Replace YOUR_SQUARE_ACCESS_TOKEN with your actual Square access token. You can obtain your access token by following the guide at Square Access Tokens. You can also set environment variables before running the command.

Remote MCP Server

Square now offers a hosted remote MCP server at:

https://mcp.squareup.com/sse

The remote MCP is recommended as it uses OAuth authentication, allowing you to log in with your Square account directly without having to create or manage access tokens manually.

Configuration Options

Integration with AI Assistants

Goose Integration

To configure the Square MCP Server with Goose:

Remote MCP

To install the Square remote MCP in Goose, click this URL on a computer where Goose is installed:

goose://extension?cmd=npx&arg=mcp-remote&arg=https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.squareup.com%2Fsse&id=square_mcp_production_remote&name=Square%20MCP%20Remote&description=Square%20Production%20MCP%20Remote

Or copy and paste the URL into your browser's address bar.

# Automatic installation
npx square-mcp-server install

# Get URL for manual installation
npx square-mcp-server get-goose-url

The install command automatically updates your Goose configuration.

Claude Desktop Integration

For Claude Desktop integration, see the Model Context Protocol Quickstart Guide. Add this configuration to your claude_desktop_config.json:

Remote MCP

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp_square_api": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp.squareup.com/sse"]
    }
  }
}

This approach allows you to authenticate directly with your Square account credentials without needing to manage access tokens.

Local MCP

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp_square_api": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["square-mcp-server", "start"],
      "env": {
        "ACCESS_TOKEN": "YOUR_SQUARE_ACCESS_TOKEN",
        "SANDBOX": "true"
      }
    }
  }
}
