Connect Claude to your store

This guide shows how to connect Claude (Desktop or Code) to Shopigent's MCP endpoint.

Prerequisite: You've installed Shopigent and issued an MCP API key from the dashboard. See Getting Started.

1. Add the MCP server

Add Shopigent to your Claude MCP configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shopigent": {
      "url": "https://shopigent-mcp-server-production.up.railway.app/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

2. Verify the connection

Ask Claude something read-only first:

List my 5 most recent orders.

Claude should call orders_list and return real data from your store.

3. Try a write action (Growth/Pro)

Create a 10% discount code SUMMER10 valid until end of month.

Shopigent will show a confirmation prompt in the app before the discount is created. Approve it, and check the audit log to see the recorded action.

Troubleshooting

• 401 Unauthorized — the API key is wrong or was revoked. Issue a new one from the dashboard.
• Tool not available — the category (e.g. Discounts) is disabled in your Curated Tools settings, or your plan doesn't include write access.
• Action blocked — a pending confirmation is waiting in the Shopigent app.
