Connect your AI tool to your store

Niblr speaks MCP (Model Context Protocol), the open standard AI tools use to connect to outside systems. Connect your AI tool to your store and manage it in plain language: "add these three products", "what sold this week?", "draft an About page with a hero and an FAQ."

Your AI tool connects to your own store, sees only your store's data, and never publishes pages or deletes anything. Page changes are saved as drafts for you to review and publish.

Connect in one click

Open Connect an AI tool in your store admin. It shows your store's MCP address — https://your-store.niblr.store/api/mcp — with a copy button. Every tool below uses the same address and the same consent step: when the tool asks to connect, Niblr shows a page naming the tool and the store and listing exactly what it will be able to do; you sign in to your store admin if you are not already, and click Allow. That's it.

If shoppers use your own domain, AI tools still connect through your niblr.store address.

Claude (claude.ai, Desktop, mobile)

1. In Claude, open Customize → Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
2. Paste your store's address as the URL and continue.
3. Click Allow on the Niblr consent page.

Your store's tools appear in the connector list. Works on an individual Claude account — no organisation admin needed.

ChatGPT

ChatGPT calls custom MCP servers plugins, and adding your own needs Developer mode.

1. In ChatGPT, open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode (OpenAI labels it elevated risk because it allows connectors OpenAI hasn't reviewed).
2. Open Plugins in the left sidebar and click the + button next to the search box.
3. In New Plugin, give it a name, paste your store's address as the Server URL, leave Authentication on OAuth, tick the acknowledgement, and click Create.
4. Click Sign in with … (the button carries your plugin name) — you'll land on the Niblr consent page. Sign in to your store admin if asked and click Allow.

Then in a chat, ask it to use your plugin: "Using SD Bakery, list my products."

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http niblr https://your-store.niblr.store/api/mcp

Your browser opens the Niblr consent page; click Allow. Run /mcp inside Claude Code to see the connection. Scripts that cannot open a browser can use an API key instead.

Gemini

The Gemini app (gemini.google.com) does not let you add your own MCP servers today. Gemini CLI does, with the same consent flow:

gemini mcp add --transport http niblr https://your-store.niblr.store/api/mcp

Then, inside Gemini CLI, run /mcp auth niblr — your browser opens the Niblr consent page; click Allow. If you prefer editing ~/.gemini/settings.json directly:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "niblr": {
      "httpUrl": "https://your-store.niblr.store/api/mcp",
      "oauth": { "enabled": true }
    }
  }
}

What you can do

Ask your AI to…	What happens	Plan
"List my out-of-stock products" / "What did I sell this week?"	Reads your catalog and orders (orders are always read-only).	Any plan
"Show me the blocks I can use on a page"	Runs list_blocks — every page block with its fields, and whether your plan can use it.	Any plan
"Add a product called Linen Tote, ₹1,200, 20 in stock"	Creates or updates products in your store.	Growth
"Draft an About page with a hero, our story, and an FAQ"	Composes a page from your blocks and saves it as a draft.	Growth

Reading your store works on every plan. Creating and editing — products, categories, and pages — is a Growth feature. On Free and Starter your AI can browse and answer questions; upgrade to Growth to let it make changes. The consent page says so before you click Allow.

Disconnect

Open Connect an AI tool in your admin and click Disconnect next to the app. Access stops immediately — the tool has to ask you again to reconnect.

Using an API key instead

Scripts and tools that cannot open a browser can still use an API key. In your admin open API Keys, create one, and send it as Authorization: Bearer <key>. Treat it like a password; delete the key to revoke it.

Good to know

• It's scoped to your store. A connection only ever sees the store it was made for.
• Safe by design. No deletes, no order changes, no changes to settings or payment details, and no publishing pages.
• Nothing goes live on its own. Preview drafts under Pages and press Publish when you're happy.
