Details
From the project READMEFinale Inventory MCP by usefulapi
Use Finale Inventory from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — products, stock per facility, orders, shipments, transfers and stock changes, plus draft purchase orders. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own Finale Inventory credentials.
Live endpoint: https://finale-inventory.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/finale-inventory
Connect
- Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste
https://finale-inventory.usefulapi.io/mcp. - Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http finale-inventory https://finale-inventory.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run/mcpto log in. - VS Code: Add to VS Code.
- Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"finale-inventory": {
"url": "https://finale-inventory.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Finale Inventory credentials.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
