Steuerboard

You run a TypeScript-based MCP Server that connects to the Steuerboard MCP endpoint to expose Steuerboard data and actions to MCP clients. This server handles the MCP protocol, enabling clients like Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, and code editors to interact with Steuerboard through a consistent interface.

How to use

Connect your MCP client to the Steuerboard MCP endpoint at mcp.steuerboard.com/mcp. Use the authorization token you receive to authenticate each request. Clients can attach the token in their configured headers to access the Steuerboard MCP Server.

Typical usage patterns include listing available MCP servers, subscribing to streams of updates, or issuing commands that trigger Steuerboard API actions through the MCP layer. If you are using a local or remote MCP client, configure the client to point to the shared MCP URL and supply the bearer token in the authorization header as shown in the client configuration examples.

How to install

Prerequisites: you need Node.js (LTS version recommended) and npm installed on your machine.

Install and start the MCP Server using the dedicated package runner.

npx @steuerboard/mcp start --bearer-auth YOUR_TOKEN

If you want to see all available server arguments, list them with the help command.

npx @steuerboard/mcp --help

Cloudflare deployment and local development workflow are also supported. To deploy to Cloudflare Workers and run locally for testing, use these commands.

npm install
npm run deploy

npm install
npm run dev

The local development server will be available at http://localhost:8787.

To connect a local development instance to a client such as Claude Code, install with the Claude Code CLI and configure the client to use the local SSE endpoint.

claude mcp add --transport sse Steuerboard http://localhost:8787/sse --header "authorization: ..."

## Configuration for MCP clients

You can configure MCP clients to connect to Steuerboard using prebuilt or manual configurations. Below are example configurations you can adapt for several clients.

{ "mcpServers": { "Steuerboard": { "type": "mcp", "url": "https://mcp.steuerboard.com/mcp", "headers": { "authorization": "${@STEUERBOARD/MCP_BEARER_AUTH}" } } } }

## Cursor

To configure via Cursor, paste the following JSON into the MCP Server Configuration field.

{ "mcpServers": { "Steuerboard": { "type": "mcp", "url": "https://mcp.steuerboard.com/mcp", "headers": { "authorization": "${@STEUERBOARD/MCP_BEARER_AUTH}" } } } }

## Claude Code CLI

claude mcp add --transport sse Steuerboard https://mcp.steuerboard.com/sse --header "authorization: ..."

## Windsurf

Open Windsurf Settings, choose Cascade, and paste the following configuration in the MCP section. Sign in to your Windsurf account to manage MCPs.

{ "mcpServers": { "Steuerboard": { "type": "mcp", "url": "https://mcp.steuerboard.com/mcp", "headers": { "authorization": "${@STEUERBOARD/MCP_BEARER_AUTH}" } } } }

## VS Code

In VS Code, open the MCP user configuration and paste the MCP configuration snippet.

{ "servers": { "Steuerboard": { "type": "mcp", "url": "https://mcp.steuerboard.com/mcp", "headers": { "authorization": "${env:@STEUERBOARD/MCP_BEARER_AUTH}" } } } }
