MCP Server

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI applications to securely access external data sources and tools. Mural hosts two MCP servers, each with a different purpose:

Documentation MCP

The Documentation MCP has access to all Mural API documentation. No authentication is needed: you don't need a Platform Account to connect, so you can start chatting with the docs and scoping your integration right away. Configure your AI development tools to connect to it. See below for various examples on how to connect your AI tool of choice:

claude mcp add --transport http mural-production https://developers.muralpay.com/mcp

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mural-production": {
      "url": "https://developers.muralpay.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mural-production": {
      "url": "https://developers.muralpay.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mural-production": {
      "url": "https://developers.muralpay.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Testing your setup

Once configured, you can test your connection:

1. Open your AI editor (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.)
2. Start a new chat with the AI assistant
3. Ask about the Mural API - try questions like:
   • "How can I fund a Mural Account?"
   • "What is the difference between the client custodial and end-user custodial models?"
   • "Show me an example of a request to send COP to a recipient"

Platform MCP

The Platform MCP has read-only access to all of your program's data. It is the same MCP that backs Eva, the in-platform assistant, so you can ask your own AI tools the same questions about your program.

To use it, you need a Mural Platform Account. If you don't have one yet, complete Platform Account Setup first.

Endpoint

Connecting

Add the URL to any client that supports remote MCP servers, then sign in with your Mural account when prompted. There is nothing to install and no key to copy.

claude mcp add --transport http mural-platform https://api.muralpay.com/api/platform/mcp

Once connected, start with a question like "which organizations can I see?" or "show me my failed payouts this month."

Data protection

• Responses are scoped to the organizations your Mural user can access — the same boundary as the dashboard and the Platform API.
• API keys are shown masked (last four characters only) and bank account numbers are masked to their last four digits.
• Requests are rate-limited per user.
