A priced, VAT-correct quote from chat, turned into an invoice with one call. It quotes a client with line items, VAT and a validity window, sends the quote as pasteable text, tracks it as open, accepted, declined or expired, and turns an accepted quote into a real invoice in the shared invoice store using the quote's own stored lines rather than recomputed prices.
The chain worth building is quote, then accept: price the work in the same chat you are about to start it in, and when the client answers, "they said yes, invoice it" is the next message rather than a context switch to a separate billing tool.
| You say | Tool |
|---|---|
| Quote Acme for 12 hours at 90 EUR plus a 300 EUR setup, 23% VAT, good for 14 days. | quote_create |
| Acme said yes. Invoice it. | quote_accept |
| What is still open, and what is my win rate? | quote_report |
A quote of EUR 1,000.00 net is issued at the profile's 23% default rate, so the client sees EUR 1,230.00. The default rate is then changed to 8% before the client answers. quote_accept still invoices EUR 1,230.00, tax_lines[0].rate === 23, because it copies the quote's stored lines instead of recomputing them against today's profile.
The file is .cursor/mcp.json, and the key inside it is mcpServers.
| Scope | Path |
|---|---|
| This project only | <project>/.cursor/mcp.json |
| Every project | ~/.cursor/mcp.json |
If you also run Claude Desktop, the shortest path there is one click: quotes.mcpb
from the bundle catalog opens as an extension, with no JSON and no terminal.
Cursor reads its own config, so here it is:
The config block:
{
"mcpServers": {
"quotes": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "node",
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/mcp-servers/servers/quotes/dist/index.js"]
}
}
}The node command above wants a built file. From a clone, once:
git clone https://github.com/theluckystrike/mcp-servers.git
cd mcp-servers && npm install
npm run build -w packages/mcp-license -w servers/quotesThat writes servers/quotes/dist/index.js, and its absolute path is the one argument
the config needs.
The npm packages are not published yet, so the form below returns a 404 today. It is here because it is what the entry becomes the day the publish lands, with nothing else changed:
{
"mcpServers": {
"quotes": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@theluckystrike/mcp-quotes"]
}
}
}The Customize page shows the server and its tools once it has started.
Nothing is published to npm yet, so the working install paths are the ones above: the .mcpb bundle from the bundle catalog, a clone and build, or the hosted URL.
The same server runs at https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/quotes over MCP streamable HTTP, no install. Mint a free token with curl https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/token, or use a Pro key. It has no filesystem, so a file comes back as a one-hour download link.
{
"mcpServers": {
"quotes": {
"url": "https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/quotes",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <token>" }
}
}
}The current field table marks `type` as required, with `stdio` for a locally launched server, so write it out rather than relying on command and args alone. The other documented restriction is that `envFile` is stdio-only: a remote HTTP or SSE server does not read it, and its headers belong in the config.
Free: 5 open quotes at a time, unlimited quote_send_text, create/revise/accept/decline, VAT, discounts and multi-currency. Pro is $19 once, verified offline.
<project>/.cursor/mcp.json applies to that project and can be committed, which suits a server tied to one client. ~/.cursor/mcp.json applies everywhere. Both are managed from the Customize page.
The current field table marks type as required, with stdio for a locally launched server, so include it. Pointing at a remote endpoint, envFile is documented as stdio-only and is not read.
Servers in Cursor's marketplace get an Add to Cursor button. The deeplink reference currently documents prompt, command and rule links only, so for MCP Quotes pasting the config block above is the supported route.
