Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted read-only MCP server that lets an assistant review Famly childcare data: sites, groups, staff, invoices, payments and staff hours.

What you can do
  • List sites, groups and account codes for the token's scope
  • Browse the staff directory, work tags and employee check-in timestamps
  • List invoices, fetch invoice summaries by ID, and list payments and purchases
  • List bill payers with balances and billing references
  • Get staff contracted, attended, scheduled and break minutes over a date range
  • Check usage, request a feature, upgrade or cancel a plan
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to answer questions about a Famly nursery or childcare setting — invoice totals and due dates, payment status, bill payer balances, or staff hours and attendance — without opening Famly itself.
Requirements
Remote MCP endpoint added by URL only; the server signs in with OAuth and its login page asks for Famly credentials. A scoped, expiring Famly API token with read access to the needed sites and resources, and the matching General or DACH region, is required; API access depends on the Famly package. Usage is metered per region and API token.
Before you install
The server asks for Famly credentials through its own OAuth login page and uses a Famly API token, so grant only read scopes and let the token expire. Data covers staff, billing identities and payment records, which are sensitive personal and financial information. Paid plans are billed through a Stripe Checkout link returned by the upgrade tool, and cancellation gives no refund for the current period. The free plan is limited to 50 calls a month.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Famly 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%2Ffamly/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

README

Famly MCP by usefulapi

Hosted at https://famly.usefulapi.io/mcp.

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://famly.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http famly https://famly.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": {    "famly": {      "url": "https://famly.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 Famly credentials.

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

Create a scoped, expiring API token in Famly’s Manage API tokens settings and select the matching General or DACH region. API access depends on your Famly package. Grant read access to sites and the resources you need. Usage and billing are per region and API token.
