+You must register for a [Shippo account](https://apps.goshippo.com/join) to use our API. It's free to sign up. Only pay to print a live label — test labels are free.  
+To use the MCP server, you’ll need an [API Token](https://docs.goshippo.com/docs/guides_general/authentication/). Replace `<YOUR_SHIPPO_API_KEY>` with your own token in examples.

+
+> **Tip**: When the installation dialog opens in Cursor, remember to replace `YOUR_SHIPPO_API_KEY` with your actual credential before saving.
+
+Or manually:
+
+1. Open Cursor Settings
+2. Select Tools and Integrations
+3. Select New MCP Server
+4. If the configuration file is empty paste the following JSON into the MCP Server Configuration:

+## Development
+
+To build the server from source:
+
+1. Clone the repository
+2. Install dependencies: `npm install`
+3. Build the server: `npm run build`
+4. The server binary will be at `bin/mcp-server.js`
+
+### Local Configuration
+
+To run the server locally from source (e.g., for development), use the following configuration in Cursor or Claude:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "shippo-dev": {
+      "command": "node",
+      "args": [
+        "/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/REPO/bin/mcp-server.js",
+        "start",
+        "--api-key-header",
+        "YOUR_SHIPPO_API_KEY",
+        "--shippo-api-version",
+        "2018-02-08"
+      ]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Replace `/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/REPO` with the full path to your cloned repository.
