Overview

AI-generated overview

Read-only access to a CentreCareOS child care center: students, parents, staff, rooms, attendance, invoices, payments and daily reports.

What you can do
  • List and look up children, parents and guardians, staff members, and rooms with their assignments and capacity.
  • Review attendance check-in and check-out records, filtered by date, plus daily report summaries.
  • Inspect billing: plans, per-student plan assignments, billing summaries, invoices with payment history, payments, and school-wide billing metrics.
  • Browse admissions waitlist entries, calendar events, menus and meal plans, incident reports, and form definitions.
  • Check the school profile and the server's own usage meter, request a missing feature, or manage a paid subscription.
When to use it
Useful for center directors and administrators who want to ask questions in plain language about enrollment, room occupancy, attendance, outstanding invoices and daily activity without opening the CentreCareOS dashboard.
Requirements
Remote hosted endpoint connected by URL; no local install. Sign-in is via OAuth with CentreCareOS credentials, and on first connect an API key id and API secret from CentreCareOS API Settings (Enterprise plan) are entered in the login page, not in config files. Read scopes are needed per tool group.
Before you install
The server handles sensitive child, family and staff records, so grant read-only scopes only. Paid plans cost money: Pro at $9/month or $90/year and Pro+ at $39/month or $390/year, billed through a Stripe Checkout link, and cancellation gives no refund for the current period. The free tier is capped at 50 calls per month. Credentials are stored per user by the hosted service.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open CentreCareOS MCP by usefulapi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.usefulapi%2Fcentrecareos/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

README

CentreCareOS MCP by usefulapi

Use your CentreCareOS account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Read the students, parents, rooms, attendance, invoices and daily reports of your child care center. This server only reads data. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.

Live endpoint: https://centrecareos.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://centrecareos.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http centrecareos https://centrecareos.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
json
{  "mcpServers": {    "centrecareos": {      "url": "https://centrecareos.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your CentreCareOS credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/centrecareos/

On first connect you enter an API key id and API secret (CentreCareOS → API Settings, Enterprise plan; give the key read scopes only). The server validates it and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.
