Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Stripe to Windsurf?

You need two things: (1) connect Stripe to Sequel in your Sequel dashboard under Connections, and (2) add the Sequel MCP config to Windsurf using the setup shown above. Once both are done, Windsurf can query your Stripe data directly.

What Stripe data can Windsurf access?

Windsurf can access any data available through your Stripe connection in Sequel. Use Sequel's search tool to discover available metrics and dimensions, then execute queries to pull the data you need.

Is my Stripe data sent to Windsurf's servers?

Query results are returned to Windsurf as context within your conversation. Only the data you explicitly ask about is retrieved. Sequel never stores your query results permanently — they exist only for the duration of the tool call.

Do I need a Sequel account?

Yes. You need a Sequel account to connect Stripe and generate an API key. Sign up free at sequel.sh — no credit card required. Then create a connection to Stripe and generate an API key from Settings → API Keys.

Can I connect multiple Stripe accounts?

Yes. Sequel supports multiple connections of the same type. If you have multiple Stripe accounts or properties, add each as a separate connection in Sequel. Windsurf will be able to query all of them.
