Setup (check before using)

ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/check_setup.rb

If the output is OK, proceed to the Flow section.

If the output is SETUP_NEEDED, guide the user step by step. Present ONE step at a time, wait for the user to confirm before moving to the next.

Step 1 — Ask the user to create an access token:

You need a MercadoPago Access Token. Go to the developer panel to get one:

https://www.mercadopago.com.br/developers/panel/app

Select your application (or create one), then go to Credentials and copy your Access Token (production or test, depending on your needs).

Paste the token here.

Step 2 — When the user pastes the token, save it:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/save_token.rb 'PASTED_TOKEN'

If the script outputs an error, the token is invalid. Ask the user to double-check and try again.

If setup is not complete, DO NOT proceed to the Flow. Complete all steps first.

Flow

The argument $ARGUMENTS may contain a payment ID or search query.

Step 1: Identify intent

If $ARGUMENTS looks like a numeric ID, show payment details. Otherwise, list payments or ask the user what they want to do.

Step 2: Actions

List/search payments:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/payments.rb
ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/payments.rb --status approved
ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/payments.rb --status pending

Get payment details:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/payment.rb PAYMENT_ID

Create a payment (requires user confirmation):

Ask the user for the payment details (amount, description, payment method, payer email). Confirm before executing.

ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/create_payment.rb '{"transaction_amount":100.0,"description":"Product","payment_method_id":"pix","payer":{"email":"[e-mail]"}}'

Refund a payment (requires user confirmation):

Show payment details first, then ask: "Do you want to refund this payment?" Only execute after a "yes".

ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/refund.rb PAYMENT_ID

List customers:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/customers.rb
ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/customers.rb --email [e-mail]

Get customer details:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/customer.rb CUSTOMER_ID

List available payment methods:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/payment_methods.rb

Check account balance:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/mercadopago/scripts/account_balance.rb
