Penny Rounding MCP MCP server

An MCP server that exposes the Penny Rounding engine, allowing agents to round cash totals to the nearest nickel correctly after tax. It provides tools for settling transactions, analyzing rounding impact across price lists, and finding price bands that settle to the same cash amount. The server is a thin wrapper over a pure function, ensuring consistency across its API, markdown, and web surfaces.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers a Streamable HTTP server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.

Claude Code configuration

claude mcp add --transport http penny-rounding-mcp https://penny-rounding.gumballtools.com/api/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).

Codex configuration

codex mcp add penny-rounding-mcp --url https://penny-rounding.gumballtools.com/api/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable penny-rounding-mcp in your MCP settings.

Cursor configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "penny-rounding-mcp": {
      "url": "https://penny-rounding.gumballtools.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure). The type must be streamableHttp for a remote HTTP server.

Cline configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "penny-rounding-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://penny-rounding.gumballtools.com/api/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start penny-rounding-mcp and inspect its tools.

VS Code configuration

{
  "servers": {
    "penny-rounding-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://penny-rounding.gumballtools.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.

Gemini CLI configuration

gemini mcp add --transport http penny-rounding-mcp https://penny-rounding.gumballtools.com/api/mcp

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.

Claude Desktop configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "penny-rounding-mcp": {
      "url": "https://penny-rounding.gumballtools.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.

Windsurf configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "penny-rounding-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://penny-rounding.gumballtools.com/api/mcp"
