المحتويات
quickbooks-mcp
Open-source MCP server that connects QuickBooks Desktop (Pro, Premier, Enterprise) to LLMs and agents.
Status: pre-1.0. Run so far against QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise Accountant 24.0 with Intuit's sample company file; other editions and years are not yet tested (see COMPATIBILITY.md, and the tester guide if you can help).
What you get
- Read: customers, vendors, employees, items, accounts, invoices, bills, payments, inventory, time, custom fields, and every standard report (aging, P&L, balance sheet, ...), as compact tables.
- Change, only if you allow it: create, update, delete and void, with previews, confirmation tokens, idempotency keys, batches and an audit log.
- Safe by default: read-only, tax IDs and bank and card numbers masked, payroll off, card data never accepted.
- Local: runs on your Windows PC next to QuickBooks and talks to it through its SDK. No cloud, no telemetry.
Install
| Claude Desktop | open the .mcpb from the latest release |
| Claude Code | /plugin marketplace add devwithmj/quickbooks-mcp, then /plugin install quickbooks-desktop@quickbooks-mcp |
| npx | npx -y @devwithmj/quickbooks-mcp |
| dnx | dnx DevWithMJ.QuickBooks.Mcp --yes |
| exe | quickbooks-mcp-win-x64.exe (or -win-x86) from the release |
Then allow access once in QuickBooks (--authorize) and add the server to your AI app. Step by step: docs/GUIDE.md.
Packages and listings: npm, NuGet, GitHub releases, the official MCP Registry (io.github.devwithmj/quickbooks-mcp) and Glama.
Turn on changes
Everything is read-only until you opt in. Add the flag to the arguments your MCP client starts the server with:
"args": ["-y", "@devwithmj/quickbooks-mcp", "--allow-writes"]
or set an environment variable: QB_ALLOW_WRITES=true for everything, or QB_ENABLE_WRITE, QB_ENABLE_UPDATE and QB_ENABLE_DELETE for one kind each (QB_WRITE_ALLOW=Invoice,Customer limits which record types can change). Deletes and voids always need a confirmation step. Details: docs/WRITES.md.
Use it over HTTP (advanced)
Most clients start the server themselves. For a client that cannot, quickbooks-mcp --http serves MCP over HTTP on 127.0.0.1:8765 only, and every request needs an access key (printed at start, or set QB_HTTP_KEY). Changes stay off unless you also pass --http-allow-writes. To reach it from another device, put your own tunnel in front of it: docs/REMOTE-ACCESS.md.
QuickBooks Online or Desktop?
This project is for QuickBooks Desktop. If you use QuickBooks Online, use Intuit's own server: intuit/quickbooks-online-mcp-server (Apache-2.0). We read its design for ideas and wrote our own code; no code was copied.
| QuickBooks Online server (Intuit) | This project (Desktop) | |
|---|---|---|
| Targets | QuickBooks Online | QuickBooks Desktop Pro, Premier, Enterprise (Windows) |
| Where it runs | Talks to Intuit's cloud API | On your PC, next to QuickBooks, through its local SDK |
| Setup and sign-in | An Intuit developer app and OAuth | A one-time "allow this app" approval inside QuickBooks (--authorize); no developer account |
| Only on Desktop | Inventory assemblies and sites, price levels, workers comp codes, custom fields via data extensions, opening a record in the QuickBooks window | |
| Only on Online | Attachments, invoice PDFs and other cloud features | |
| Safety default | See that project | Read-only until you enable writes; deletes and voids need your approval; sensitive numbers masked; payroll off; audit log |
| Data path | Through Intuit's cloud | Stays on your computer except what the assistant is shown |
The two do not share a company file or an account: a business on Online should not use this project, and a Desktop business cannot use Intuit's.
Requirements
- Windows with QuickBooks Desktop installed and licensed.
- Admin access to the company file for the one-time authorization.

- Tools: every tool, parameter and example
- Prompt cookbook, Writes and Reports
- Scope and non-goals and security model
