Paper Invoice

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Paper.id — Indonesian invoicing & accounting platform.

Exposes 31 tools covering partner CRUD, invoice CRUD, send invoice, QRIS payment, and reporting.
Token is persisted in SQLite and auto-refreshed on 401 — no manual token management needed.

Quick Setup

Option A — JWT token only

Best for quick testing or CI. No password stored — just paste your token.

1. Get your token from Chrome DevTools:

• Open app.paper.id → DevTools (F12) → Network tab
• Click any request to api.paper.id → Headers → Request Headers
• Copy the value after Authorization: Bearer (the eyJ... part)

2. Get your Company ID and User ID:

• Same DevTools window → Response tab of any request
• Look for body.user.uuid (User ID) and body.user.company_id (Company ID)
• Or: set PAPERID_TOKEN first, then call tool paperid_get_current_user — it returns both

3. Add to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "paperid": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/paper-invoice-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "PAPERID_TOKEN":      "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.your.token",
        "PAPERID_COMPANY_ID": "37e0eae0-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "PAPERID_USER_ID":    "3f5a9896-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "paperid": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/paper-invoice-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "PAPERID_TOKEN":      "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.your.token",
        "PAPERID_COMPANY_ID": "37e0eae0-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "PAPERID_USER_ID":    "3f5a9896-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
      }
    }
  }
}

VS Code (.vscode/mcp.json)

{
  "servers": {
    "paperid": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/paper-invoice-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "PAPERID_TOKEN":      "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.your.token",
        "PAPERID_COMPANY_ID": "37e0eae0-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "PAPERID_USER_ID":    "3f5a9896-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
      }
    }
  }
}

JWT expires in ~30 days. When it does, copy a fresh token from DevTools and update the config.

Option B — Phone + Password (auto-refresh)

Best for long-running assistants. Token saved to SQLite, silently refreshed on 401.

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "paperid": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/paper-invoice-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "PAPERID_PHONE":    "08xxxxxxxxxx",
        "PAPERID_PASSWORD": "your_password_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

First run — call paperid_login (or paperid_refresh_token) once to store the JWT in SQLite.
After that, the server handles everything automatically.

Token persisted at ~/.paperid-mcp/tokens.db. Override path with PAPERID_DB_PATH.

Features

• Partner management — create, read, list, search, update, delete
• Invoice management — create, read, list, send (WA/email/SMS), generate QRIS, delete
• Notes & Terms — notes (Keterangan) and terms (Syarat & Ketentuan) support plain text or HTML
• Token persistence — JWT stored in SQLite (~/.paperid-mcp/tokens.db)
• Auto token refresh — re-logins on 401 when PAPERID_PHONE + PAPERID_PASSWORD are set
• Reporting — account receivable/payable insights, profit & loss

---

Requirements

• Node.js ≥ 18 (uses built-in FormData)
• Bun (recommended) or npm

---

Installation

git clone [email protected]:igun997/paper-invoice-mcp.git
cd paper-invoice-mcp
bun install
bun run build

---

Configuration

Create a .env file (or set environment variables):

# Required for auto token refresh
PAPERID_PHONE=08xxxxxxxxxx
PAPERID_PASSWORD=your_password_here

# Optional overrides (loaded from SQLite if omitted)
PAPERID_TOKEN=            # JWT token (leave blank to use SQLite)
PAPERID_COMPANY_ID=       # Company UUID
PAPERID_USER_ID=          # User UUID

# Optional: custom SQLite path (default: ~/.paperid-mcp/tokens.db)
PAPERID_DB_PATH=/path/to/tokens.db

Security: Never commit .env to version control. The .gitignore excludes it.

---

Token Lifecycle

First run: PAPERID_PHONE + PAPERID_PASSWORD set
    → paperid_login  (or paperid_refresh_token tool)
    → JWT saved to SQLite

Subsequent runs:
    → JWT loaded from SQLite automatically
    → On 401: re-login silently, retry request

Manual refresh:
    → Call paperid_refresh_token tool
    → Or: set PAPERID_TOKEN env var for one-time use

SQLite Schema

CREATE TABLE tokens (
  phone       TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
  token       TEXT NOT NULL,
  user_id     TEXT NOT NULL,
  company_id  TEXT NOT NULL,
  expires_at  INTEGER NOT NULL,  -- Unix timestamp
  created_at  INTEGER NOT NULL,
  updated_at  INTEGER NOT NULL
);

Token auto-refreshes when expired (with 5-minute buffer) if credentials are in env.
