Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/heyvhuang/ship-faster --skill stripe- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads stripe automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.
SKILL.md
The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.
Stripe Billing Operations
Execute billing and payment operations on Stripe: customers, products, invoices, payment links, subscriptions, refunds, and disputes.
MCP is optional. This skill works with MCP (auto), Stripe CLI, or Dashboard. See BACKENDS.md for execution options.
Three Hard Rules
- Read before write — Before creating customer/product/price, check if it already exists to avoid duplicates
- Money operations require confirmation — Refunds, subscription changes, dispute updates must be confirmed before execution
- When in doubt, search — If unsure about object ID or parameters, search first, don't guess
Security Rules
| Operation Type | Rule |
|---|---|
| Read (list, get, search) | Execute directly |
| Create (customer, product, price, invoice) | Check for duplicates first |
| Money (refund, subscription cancel/update, dispute) | Display details → Await confirmation → Execute |
| Mode | Test mode by default. Live requires explicit "live mode" + double confirmation |
Dangerous Actions (Require Confirmation)
Before executing these operations:
- Display — Show object ID and key fields
- Explain impact — Amount, timing, consequences
- Await confirmation — Wait for explicit "confirm"/"yes"/"proceed"
- Execute and receipt — Return result + object ID + status
| Action | Risk |
|---|---|
create_refund | Money leaves account |
cancel_subscription | Revenue loss |
update_subscription | Contract change |
update_dispute | Legal implications |
Example confirmation prompt:
About to execute refund:
- PaymentIntent: pi_xxx
- Amount: $50.00 (full amount)
- Reason: requested_by_customer
Reply "confirm" to proceed, or "cancel" to abort.
Common Workflows
Create Customer
1. Search/list to check if customer exists (by email)
2. If not exists, create_customer(name, email, metadata)
3. Return cus_xxx + key info
Create Product and Price
1. List products to check if already exists
2. create_product(name, description)
3. create_price(product=prod_xxx, unit_amount=cents, currency)
4. Return prod_xxx + price_xxx
Create and Send Invoice
1. Confirm customer ID (list_customers if unknown)
2. create_invoice(customer=cus_xxx, collection_method, days_until_due)
3. create_invoice_item(invoice=inv_xxx, price=price_xxx, quantity)
4. finalize_invoice(invoice=inv_xxx)
5. Return inv_xxx + hosted_invoice_url
Create Payment Link
1. Confirm price ID (list_prices if unknown)
2. create_payment_link(line_items=[{price, quantity}])
3. Return payment link URL
Refund (Dangerous)
1. list_payment_intents to find target payment
2. Display pi_xxx + amount + customer info
3. Request user confirmation
4. create_refund(payment_intent=pi_xxx, amount?, reason)
5. Return re_xxx + status
Cancel Subscription (Dangerous)
1. list_subscriptions(customer=cus_xxx) to find target
2. Display sub_xxx + status + next billing date
3. Ask: cancel immediately or at period end?
4. After confirmation, cancel_subscription(subscription=sub_xxx)
5. Return cancellation result
Default Configuration
- Currency: Use user-specified; else use existing object's currency; else ask
- Amount: Accept decimals, auto-convert to smallest unit (e.g., $19.99 → 1999)
- Output: Object type + ID + key fields + next steps
Limitations
These operations are NOT available via standard tools:
- ❌ Create PaymentIntent / charge directly
- ❌ Create subscription (only list/update/cancel)
- ❌ Create Promotion Code (only coupon)
- ❌ Delete objects
For these, use Dashboard or API directly.

Error Handling
| Situation | Action |
|---|---|
| Object doesn't exist | Search to find correct ID |
