What the publisher says
From the BoomTax repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
BoomTax MCP Server
Read-only BoomTax filing tools for Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code Copilot, and other Model Context Protocol clients.
The hosted endpoint is https://api.boomtax.com/mcp, using Streamable HTTP and OAuth. API access must be enabled on your BoomTax account; contact support@boomtax.com if needed.
Release status (October 9, 2026): the hosted API update is deployed, and the remote server is published in the official MCP Registry as io.github.boomtax/mcp-server, version 2.0.0. The npm 2.0.0 client is not yet published; npm 1.0.0 uses legacy password authentication. Use the remote connection or run the local client from this source tree. See release validation for client verification and remaining publication work.
Tools
These tools cannot create, edit, delete, or submit filings. The local client forwards these ten tools to the hosted service and blocks other tool names. Use listfilingtypes for current form availability, rather than a static list that can go stale each tax year.
Setup
Remote connection (recommended)
Use https://api.boomtax.com/mcp in a client that supports Streamable HTTP and OAuth with PKCE. Complete the browser sign-in when prompted. OAuth client registration uses Dynamic Client Registration (DCR); choose automatic registration if your client offers a choice between DCR and a published client identity. Client ID Metadata Documents (CIMD) are not currently supported.
Discovery endpoints:
- https://api.boomtax.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource
- https://api.boomtax.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server
A 401 response when opening /mcp without authentication is expected. It includes a WWW-Authenticate discovery header. A bare URL in a browser is not an authenticated connection test.
Local client (version 2)
Requires Node.js 22 or newer. Create a read-scoped API credential at BoomTax API credentials. Supply the values through your client's secret storage or environment:
The client obtains short-lived OAuth tokens and authenticates again when a token expires. It does not use an account email/password. HTTP is allowed only for loopback development servers; other origins require HTTPS.
Run the source version after setting those environment variables:
git clone https://github.com/boomtax/mcp-server.git
cd mcp-server
npm ci
node index.jsAfter the 2.0.0 release is published, the equivalent package command is:
npx -y @boomtax/mcp-server@2.0.0On Windows, clients that cannot spawn npx directly can use cmd /c npx -y @boomtax/mcp-server@2.0.0, or invoke the installed client with node and an absolute path to index.js.
