WooCommerce MCP

MCP is the open standard that lets AI assistants use outside tools. A WooCommerce MCP server gives Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client a set of real store tools — so instead of chatting about your products, your assistant works on them.

StoreAgent runs that server for you as a managed gateway. No endpoint on your store, no API keys, and you decide exactly which tools your assistant can touch.

Free account, no credit card required.

The plain-English version

What is a WooCommerce MCP server?

Short answer, then the detail. Skip to setup if you already know MCP.

A WooCommerce MCP server exposes your store’s capabilities — products, content, reviews, insights — as tools an AI assistant can discover and run. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard Claude and ChatGPT use to talk to those tools. Connect one, and your assistant stops guessing about your catalog and starts working on it.

Without MCP

You copy a product into ChatGPT, paste the answer back, and repeat. The assistant never sees your real catalog, stock or reviews — so it invents details.

With MCP

You point the assistant at your store once. It reads live data, runs StoreAgent’s AI agents, and writes changes back — within the access you granted.

Setup

Connect Claude to your store in three steps

One URL, one sign-in, one approval. No keys, no config files, no server to stand up.

1

Copy your endpoint

Update StoreAgent to 1.1.9 or later, open StoreAgent → Settings → MCP, switch on Enable MCP for this store and copy your endpoint URL. Add it to your assistant as a custom connector. Yours looks like this:

https://api.storeagent.ai/mcp/yourstore.com
2

Approve on your own store

Your store opens its own approval page in wp-admin. Sign in as an administrator or shop manager — not in the assistant — and pick the access level. Read-only is pre-selected. Short-lived tokens, nothing to paste.

Selected: Read-only

3

Put it to work

Your assistant discovers the tools you switched on and gets to work — drafting descriptions, tagging products, summarising reviews, managing your chat widget. Every call lands in the 30-day activity log in wp-admin.

What your assistant can actually do

StoreAgent registers 24 abilities of its own, and your assistant is not limited to them. Any ability registered on your store can be switched on too: WooCommerce core, other plugins, your theme. Read-only abilities are on by default; anything that makes changes stays off until you allow it. You curate the list. See StoreAgent’s 24 abilities.

Head to head

Safer than self-hosting an MCP server

Self-hosting means running and patching an endpoint on your production store, handling auth yourself, and building your own logging. WooCommerce core’s MCP support puts that endpoint on your site too. StoreAgent’s managed gateway does the security work for you.

StoreAgent mascot, the store detective

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT use to discover and run an outside system’s tools. A WooCommerce MCP server exposes your store’s capabilities to your assistant, so it can answer questions and do real store work instead of just chatting about it.

Update StoreAgent to 1.1.9 or later and switch on MCP under StoreAgent → Settings → MCP. Copy your endpoint URL, then in Claude open Settings → Connectors, choose Add custom connector and paste the URL (leave the OAuth client fields empty). Choose Connect, sign in on your store’s approval page, pick read-only or read and write, and approve. Turn the connector on in a chat and you are done.

Same endpoint. In ChatGPT open Settings → Plugins → Browse Plugins, choose the + icon, give it a name and paste your endpoint URL. Set Authentication to OAuth, leave the client fields empty and create it. Choose Connect, approve on your store, then turn it on in a new chat. On Business or Enterprise an admin must allow custom plugins first.

You stay in control: you choose the access level when you approve a connection, tools that make changes are hidden from read-only connections, every call runs through the same permission checks as a human user in wp-admin, and you can revoke any connection in seconds. Every call is also logged.

StoreAgent MCP is built for store owners: no API keys, no server to run, scoped access, rate limiting, an activity log, and one-click revoke — all managed through StoreAgent’s cloud gateway. Self-hosted endpoints leave the security work to you.

WooCommerce core’s MCP support exposes an endpoint on your own site, which you host and secure yourself. StoreAgent’s MCP is gateway-managed: your store never runs the server, and you get central revoke, rate limits, scoped access, and an audit trail on top.

Any client that speaks MCP. Claude needs a Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise plan to add custom connectors, and ChatGPT needs Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The setup is the same for both: paste the endpoint, sign in on your store, approve.

Yes. StoreAgent MCP is a standard remote MCP server with OAuth, so any MCP-compatible client works: Cursor, Claude Code, Grok, Hermes, MCP Inspector, or an agent you build yourself. Point it at your endpoint URL and approve the connection on your store the same way.

StoreAgent’s 24 abilities (product descriptions, tags, alt text, review summaries, coupons, upsells and cross-sells, AI Memory management, chat widget settings and conversations, and your plan usage) plus any other ability registered on your store. WooCommerce core registers abilities for orders, products and customers, and any plugin or theme built on the WordPress Abilities API adds its own. Read-only abilities are on by default. Abilities that make changes, and everything from other plugins, stay off until you allow them.

No. There are no API keys to find or paste. You copy one URL into your assistant, sign in on your store, and approve. That’s the whole setup.

MCP is included on every StoreAgent plan — including the free plan. AI-powered abilities draw on your plan’s existing usage limits.

StoreAgent 1.1.9 or later. Update the plugin, then switch on MCP under StoreAgent → Settings → MCP. The abilities browser, your connections and the 30-day activity log all live in that tab.
