Tools
Details
From the project READMEWeFile MCP by usefulapi
Use your WeFile account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. It lists companies and filings, creates and saves CT600 drafts, generates documents, and submits filings to HMRC and Companies House. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.
Live endpoint: https://wefile.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io
Connect
- Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste
https://wefile.usefulapi.io/mcp. - Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http wefile https://wefile.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": {
"wefile": {
"url": "https://wefile.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 WeFile credentials.
Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/wefile/
On first connect you provide your WeFile API key (in the WeFile developer dashboard under API Access; it needs the Developer Package). The server validates it and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.

Pricing
| Plan | Price | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 50 tool calls / month |
| Pro (per user) | $9/mo or $90/yr (2 months free) | 10,000 tool calls / month |
| Pro+ (per user) | $39/mo or $390/yr (2 months free) | 100,000 tool calls / month |
Each paid plan covers this server only. Ask your AI to run wefile_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with wefile_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with wefile_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

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.
