Xero MCP Integration for Claude Agent SDK
Connect Xero to Claude Agent SDK through the local KosmoKrator MCP gateway with scoped tools, credentials, and write policy.
Connect Xero to Claude Agent SDK
Give Claude Agent SDK workflows access to KosmoKrator integrations through a local MCP server.
Add a KosmoKrator stdio MCP server to the Claude Agent SDK options. The gateway is local, scoped to this integration, and starts with
--write=deny so Claude Agent SDK can inspect read-capable tools without receiving write access by default.
