    Ask Claude Code about Stripe

    Ask a question about the accounts your connection can reach. Claude Code can also write the numbers into a file or a script for you. Try "Build a monthly cohort table from Stripe, new customers by signup month and revenue by month since, and save it to data/stripe_cohorts.csv." Or ask: "What does a customer cost by month?" or "Which campaigns bring revenue?"

Good to know

  • The command uses Claude Code's default local scope. Use --scope user to share the server across projects.

What can Claude Code do with Stripe?

Claude Code queries your Stripe data while it works in your repo: it saves data as files, checks tracking against code and runs headless with claude -p.
