commercetools Model Context Protocol

Setup

To run the commercetools MCP server using npx, use the following command:

Client Credentials Authentication (Default)

# To set up all available tools (authType is optional, defaults to client_credentials)
npx -y @commercetools/mcp-essentials --tools=all --clientId=CLIENT_ID --clientSecret=CLIENT_SECRET --projectKey=PROJECT_KEY --authUrl=AUTH_URL --apiUrl=API_URL

# Explicitly specify client_credentials (optional)
npx -y @commercetools/mcp-essentials --tools=all --authType=client_credentials --clientId=CLIENT_ID --clientSecret=CLIENT_SECRET --projectKey=PROJECT_KEY --authUrl=AUTH_URL --apiUrl=API_URL

# To set up all read-only tools
npx -y @commercetools/mcp-essentials --tools=all.read --clientId=CLIENT_ID --clientSecret=CLIENT_SECRET --projectKey=PROJECT_KEY --authUrl=AUTH_URL --apiUrl=API_URL
# To set up specific tools
npx -y @commercetools/mcp-essentials --tools=products.read,products.create --clientId=CLIENT_ID --clientSecret=CLIENT_SECRET --projectKey=PROJECT_KEY --authUrl=AUTH_URL --apiUrl=API_URL

Access Token Authentication

# To set up all available tools with access token
npx -y @commercetools/mcp-essentials --tools=all --authType=auth_token --accessToken=ACCESS_TOKEN --projectKey=PROJECT_KEY --authUrl=AUTH_URL --apiUrl=API_URL

# To set up all read-only tools with access token
npx -y @commercetools/mcp-essentials --tools=all.read --authType=auth_token --accessToken=ACCESS_TOKEN --projectKey=PROJECT_KEY --authUrl=AUTH_URL --apiUrl=API_URL

Make sure to replace CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET, PROJECT_KEY, AUTH_URL, API_URL, and ACCESS_TOKEN with your actual values. If using the customerId parameter, replace CUSTOMER_ID with the actual customer ID. Alternatively, you could set the API_KEY in your environment variables.

To view information on how to locally run the bootstrapped MCP server, see this README.

[!IMPORTANT] To load all the available tools set --tools=all and --isAdmin=true, all the available tools will be loaded into the MCP server. To limit the number of loaded tools set --tools=all.read for read-only tools or --tools=carts.read,quote.create,quote.read,... To disable dynamic tools loading set the dynamicToolLoadingThreshold to a very high value e.g --dynamicToolLoadingThreshold=650.
