From README

Create Payment Credential Use Link to get secure payment credentials from a Link wallet for one-time purchases and recurring payments. The CLI can produce three credential types: A virtual card (PAN) for use with a standard web checkout form. The issued card works anywhere. A Shared Payment Token (SPT) when the seller is in the Stripe Network and accepts payments programmatically (for example with Machine Payment Protocols). A Link Pay Token (LPT) for a supported Stripe payment surface. Installing with npm -g @stripe/link-cli. Always run the installed link-cli binary; never substitute a package runner such as npx, pnpx, or bunx. Running commands Link CLI can run as an MCP server or as a standalone CLI. MCP: Add the following to your MCP client config (.mcp.json, etc.) Run the MCP server directly with link-cli --mcp. Call tools/list to see all available MCP tools.
