This plugin adds PayPal integration support to Claude Code, letting developers work with PayPal's APIs and a sandbox MCP server directly from their editor. It bundles a skill that automatically supplies PayPal integration guidance, a set of slash commands for common tasks like diagnosing errors or setting up sandbox testing, and a pre-write hook that prompts Claude to check best practices before editing PayPal-related code. The bundled MCP server exposes tools covering orders and payments, invoices, subscriptions, disputes, catalog management, shipments, and reporting. Setup requires a PayPal Developer account and a sandbox access token configured in Claude Code's settings file. The plugin is aimed at streamlining PayPal payment feature development rather than at end-user checkout itself.
About the service
PayPal is an online payments platform that provides APIs and SDKs for handling checkout, subscriptions, invoicing, payouts, disputes, and identity verification. Its developer platform includes a sandbox environment for testing and, more recently, an MCP server and agent toolkit that let AI assistants interact with these payment operations via natural language.
