What is the Buchpilot MCP server?

Connect Buchpilot to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. DACH accounting for AI: connect sevDesk & Lexoffice to create invoices, contacts, vouchers. The buchpilot mcp server is what makes that connection.

What the server does

BuchPilot MCP ist ein Model Context Protocol Server, der dein Buchhaltungssystem (aktuell Lexoffice) mit KI-Assistenten verbindet. Du kannst per natuerlicher Sprache Rechnungen erstellen, Kontakte verwalten und ueberfaellige Zahlungen pruefen — direkt in Claude Desktop, Cursor oder jedem anderen MCP-Client.

  • 15 Tools — fuer vollstaendige Buchhaltungs-Automatisierung
  • Kontakte — erstellen, abrufen, auflisten, aktualisieren
  • Rechnungen — erstellen, abrufen, auflisten, aktualisieren, PDF herunterladen
  • Belege — erstellen, abrufen, auflisten (Eingangsrechnungen, Gutschriften)
  • Angebote — erstellen, abrufen
  • Ueberfaellige Rechnungen — mit Betraegen und Tagen ueberfaellig

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • Voraussetzungen — The Voraussetzungen tool exposed by this server
  • Kurzuebersicht — The Kurzuebersicht tool exposed by this server

Installation

Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at buchpilot-mcp on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: BUCHPILOT_CONFIG, DEIN_LEXOFFICE_API_KEY, DEIN_KEY. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

Where it fits

This sits in the payments and commerce group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Buchpilot's toolset — Voraussetzungen, Kurzuebersicht — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by makririch; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Buchpilot's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
