Common questions

Is Inventory Planner MCP by usefulapi safe?

It passed 4 of 4 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed yesterday, and the latest version (1.25.0) reached the registry today.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT Business and above.

What can I use instead?

Inventory Planner MCP by usefulapi

Use Inventory Planner from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — variants with forecast and replenishment metrics, vendors and purchase orders, plus draft purchase orders. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own Inventory Planner credentials.

Live endpoint: https://inventory-planner.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/inventory-planner

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://inventory-planner.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http inventory-planner https://inventory-planner.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{

"mcpServers": { "inventory-planner": { "url": "https://inventory-planner.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 Inventory Planner credentials.
