RequestBin MCP Server

Official
by requestbin

@requestbin/mcp-server

Use RequestBin directly in Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible AI coding agent.

Create webhook bins, inspect captured HTTP requests, replay them, and stand up mock API endpoints — all without leaving your editor.

Installation

npm install -g @requestbin/mcp-server

Or run directly with npx:

npx @requestbin/mcp-server

Get an API Key

  1. Go to requestbin.net/api-keys

  2. Create a new API key

API keys and MCP access are available on every plan, including FREE (5 keys per account). Per-feature limits (bin count, mock endpoint count, custom mock slug) still apply per plan — see requestbin.net/pricing.

Configuration

Claude Code

Add to your project's .mcp.json or ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "requestbin": {
      "command": "requestbin-mcp",
      "env": {
        "REQUESTBIN_API_KEY": "rb_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "requestbin": {
      "command": "requestbin-mcp",
      "env": {
        "REQUESTBIN_API_KEY": "rb_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add to Cursor Settings > MCP Servers:

{
  "requestbin": {
    "command": "requestbin-mcp",
    "env": {
      "REQUESTBIN_API_KEY": "rb_your_key_here"
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add to ~/.windsurf/mcp_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "requestbin": {
      "command": "requestbin-mcp",
      "env": {
        "REQUESTBIN_API_KEY": "rb_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Available Tools

Webhook bins & replay:

Tool

Description

list_bins

List all your webhook bins with URLs and stats

create_bin

Create a new webhook bin (returns URL for webhook endpoint)

get_bin

Get bin details including recent interactions

delete_bin

Delete a webhook bin

list_interactions

List captured HTTP requests for a bin (method, headers, body)

replay_request

Send an HTTP request to any URL (server-side replay)

get_replay_status

Check the status of a replay job

list_servers

List available servers for bin creation

Mock APIs (*.rbmock.dev):

Tool

Description

list_mock_endpoints

List your mock endpoints with slug, URL, and rule count

create_mock_endpoint

Create a mock endpoint (returns live {slug}.rbmock.dev URL)

add_mock_rule

Append a routing rule (match method/path → status + headers + body)

deploy_mock

Publish the current rule set so the live mock server picks it up

list_mock_captures

List recent requests that hit a mock endpoint — verify your integration is actually calling the mock URL

Example Workflow

Here is what a typical conversation looks like with an AI agent that has the RequestBin MCP server configured:

You: "Create a webhook bin for testing my Stripe integration"

The agent will:

  1. Call list_servers to find available servers

  2. Call create_bin with name "Stripe Webhooks"

  3. Return the bin URL to configure in your Stripe Dashboard

You: "Show me the last 5 requests to my Stripe webhook bin"

The agent will:

  1. Call list_bins to find your bins

  2. Call list_interactions with the bin ID and limit of 5

  3. Display the HTTP method, path, headers, and body of each captured request

You: "Replay the last webhook event to my local server at localhost:3000/webhooks"

The agent will:

  1. Call list_interactions to find the most recent request

  2. Call replay_request with the same method, headers, and body targeting http://localhost:3000/webhooks

  3. Call get_replay_status to confirm delivery

You: "Stand up a mock Stripe API that returns 200 for POST /v1/charges and 402 for POST /v1/charges/decline"

The agent will:

  1. Call create_mock_endpoint with name "Stripe mock" — gets back a live URL like https://abc12.rbmock.dev

  2. Call add_mock_rule twice (one per path) with the matching status codes and JSON bodies

  3. Call deploy_mock to publish — the URL is now ready to point your integration at
