Stripe Opens Agent Data Analysis to All Users via MCP, Queries and Reports APIs; Queries Free Through Jan 31, 2027

On November 5 Stripe made agent access to Stripe analytics available to all users via the Stripe MCP or the Queries and Reports APIs directly. Compatible agents such as Claude and Cursor can answer natural-language questions about MRR, churn, fraud and reconciliation. The Reports API ships a modeled schema of 300+ tables with built-in guidance; Queries API is free through January 31, 2027 then usage-based, while Reports API stays free. Every analysis exposes the underlying SQL for verification.

Claude API launches the Usage and Cost Analytics API in beta and raises the request size limit to 128 MB

Per the official Claude API release notes, on Oct 29 Anthropic launched the Usage and Cost Analytics API in beta, with two endpoints, /v1/organizations/analytics/usage and /analytics/cost, that filter and group token usage and cost by model, workspace, API key, and the user or service account behind each request, with 1-minute, 1-hour, or 1-day buckets. The older Usage and Cost API is now legacy but still supported. On Oct 28 the maximum request size for the Messages and Token Counting APIs on the first-party Claude API rose from 32 MB to 128 MB.

Key Takeaways

  • The new API needs the analytics-usage-cost-2026-08-24 beta header; one endpoint returns token and request counts, the other cost in USD (per the official docs)
  • group_by takes up to 5 dimensions, time buckets can be 1m, 1h, or 1d, and each filter accepts up to 100 values
  • Claude Console and Claude Enterprise organizations share the same endpoints and fields; it also works on Claude Platform on AWS and Claude Models on Google Cloud (Anthropic managed)
  • The old Usage and Cost API and four Enterprise Analytics usage and cost report endpoints are now legacy but still supported, with migration guides
  • Since Oct 28 the Messages and Token Counting APIs accept requests up to 128 MB instead of 32 MB (4x), on the first-party Claude API only

Deliberation open-sources MCP and Claude Code plugin for multi-model second opinions

@DanKornas introduced antonbabenko/deliberation, an open-source MCP server and Claude Code plugin for second opinions on coding plans, reviews, and debugging. It routes tasks to GPT, Gemini, Grok, and OpenRouter models and returns Claude-synthesized answers instead of raw dumps, with seven domain expert roles, advisory or implementation modes, an arbiter consensus loop, and run analytics. The repository had about 155 GitHub stars at verification and uses MIT.

Key Takeaways

  • Multi-provider second opinions from GPT, Gemini, Grok, and configured OpenRouter models, returned as Claude-synthesized answers.
  • Seven domain experts cover architecture, plan review, code review, security, research, debugging, and scope; advisory or implementation modes.
  • Arbiter-mediated consensus loop plus analyze tooling for latency, tokens, and verdict agreement; antonbabenko/deliberation had about 155 stars at verification under MIT.
