clover-mcp

MCP server for the Clover POS REST API — gives AI assistants (Claude, Cursor, etc.) read and safe-write access to a Clover merchant's sales, inventory, orders, and customers.

PyPI Python versions License: MIT

Status: v0.7.0 released; working tree (unreleased) — 56 tools, 6 prompts, both auth modes, 399 tests. Runs locally (stdio, single merchant) or remotely over HTTP with OAuth, single- or multi-tenant (see docs/DEPLOY.md). Endpoint contracts are sandbox-verified in docs/endpoints.md.

⚠️ Independent project — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Clover Network, LLC or Fiserv, Inc. "Clover" is a trademark of its respective owner and is used here only nominatively to describe interoperability. Provided as is, without warranty — see Legal & disclaimer.

What it can do

  • Sales summaries, payment and refund reports

  • Inventory lookups and low-stock alerts

  • Order history and open-order inspection

  • Customer search and creation

  • Employee, shift, role, category, modifier, tax, tender, and device lookups; best-selling items

  • Pricing config lookups: discount catalogue, tip-suggestion presets, default service charge

  • Safe writes: update item prices, set stock quantities, create customers/items/categories/orders, add line items, update customers, rename items, apply order discounts, create modifier groups/modifiers/tags

  • AI tools (reason via your client's model — the server holds no LLM key): sales briefings, reorder suggestions, anomaly detection, category suggestions, customer-message drafts

  • Predefined prompt workflows: daily briefing, weekly sales report, inventory health check, end-of-day closeout, customer lookup, monthly tax summary

What it cannot do (by design): process refunds, capture payments, void charges, delete records. Those stay in the Clover dashboard.

uvx clover-mcp          # run directly (recommended)
# or
pip install clover-mcp  # then launch with: clover-mcp

From source (for development):

git clone https://github.com/SBolivarLoL/clover-mcp-server
cd clover-mcp-server
uv pip install -e .

Auth modes

  • token — paste a static access token. Works for sandbox and single-merchant production use. If the token expires, regenerate it in the Clover Developer Dashboard.

  • oauth_refresh — the server auto-refreshes on expiry and persists the new token pair to CLOVER_TOKEN_STORE (default: ~/.config/clover-mcp/tokens.json, mode 0600). Clover refresh tokens are single-use, so the rotated pair is written back after each refresh. Run scripts/get_sandbox_token.py to obtain tokens — it writes them straight to the store, so you only set CLOVER_AUTH_MODE, CLOVER_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID, CLOVER_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET, and CLOVER_MERCHANT_ID in .env (no token values needed). Pasting CLOVER_ACCESS_TOKEN / CLOVER_REFRESH_TOKEN into .env still works as an alternative.

Use a least-privilege token. Grant only the permission scopes the tools you actually use require (see the table below). A read-only deployment needs no *_W scopes at all. Don't reuse a production token in sandbox or vice versa.

Claude Desktop setup

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "clover": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["clover-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CLOVER_MERCHANT_ID": "your_merchant_id",
        "CLOVER_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your_token",
        "CLOVER_REGION": "na"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor setup

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project (or ~/.cursor/mcp.json globally):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "clover": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["clover-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CLOVER_MERCHANT_ID": "your_merchant_id",
        "CLOVER_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your_token"
      }
    }
  }
}

Required Clover permissions

Your token must have the following Clover permission scopes:

Permission

Used by

MERCHANT_R

get_merchant_info

ORDERS_R

list_orders, get_order, list_open_orders

PAYMENTS_R

list_payments, list_refunds, list_credits, get_sales_summary, get_sales_by_employee, get_tips_by_employee, get_sales_by_hour

ORDERS_R

…also get_top_items

INVENTORY_R

list_items, get_item, list_low_stock_items, list_categories, list_modifiers, list_taxes, list_discounts, list_item_groups, list_attributes, list_tags

INVENTORY_W

set_item_price_cents, set_item_stock_quantity, create_item, create_category, update_item_name, create_modifier_group, create_modifier, create_tag

ORDERS_W

create_order, add_line_item, apply_order_discount

CUSTOMERS_R

search_customers, get_customer

CUSTOMERS_W

create_customer, update_customer

EMPLOYEES_R

list_employees, get_employee, list_shifts, list_active_shifts, list_roles (optional)

MERCHANT_R

…also list_devices, list_tenders, list_order_types, list_opening_hours, list_cash_events, list_tip_suggestions, get_default_service_charge

Read scopes (*_R) are probed at startup; the server warns about any missing ones (it no longer exits — a hosted server must still start) and the affected tools return a 403 when called. EMPLOYEES_R is optional. Write scopes (*_W) are not probed (a probe would mutate data) — a missing write scope surfaces as a 403 the first time you call that tool. Permission changes on a Clover app require the merchant to reinstall the app.

Remote / hosted (v2)

By default this runs locally over stdio for a single merchant. To run it remotely:

  • FastMCP Cloud / Horizon (easiest): deploy with entrypoint server.py:mcp, enable the platform's built-in auth, and set single-merchant Clover env vars. The platform handles OAuth, HTTPS, and transport — no IdP setup, and do not set CLOVER_TRANSPORT/CLOVER_AUTH_* (that path needs an IdP and will fail).

  • Self-host: use server.py:create_server, which makes clover-mcp an OAuth 2.1 resource server (validates your IdP's JWTs, publishes Protected Resource Metadata per RFC 9728, routes by token claim) and refuses to start without an IdP so it can't run open.

Full setup for both in docs/DEPLOY.md. How SSO/SAML, SCIM, audit, and multi-tenant authorization fit: docs/enterprise-identity.md.

Sales summary semantics

get_sales_summary makes the accounting explicit so the LLM can explain it:

  • Gross = sum of result=SUCCESS payment amounts. FAIL/AUTH/uncaptured PRE_AUTH are excluded.

  • Refunds come from the dedicated /refunds endpoint (Clover refunds are separate objects with a positive amount, not negative payments). Voids are counted from voided payments. Both are reported separately (refund_count/refund_amount, void_count) — never netted into payment_count. net_sales = gross_sales - refund_amount.

  • Tips and taxes are broken out as their own line items.

  • Service charges are not reported separately: Clover exposes them on the order only as a percentage (no computed amount), and what customers actually paid is already in gross_sales via payment totals.

  • Offline payments are included; a note flags the window when any are present.

  • Currency comes from the merchant record, never defaulted.

  • Windows longer than 90 days are split and concatenated transparently.

Development

uv pip install -e ".[dev]"
pytest
ruff check src/ tests/ scripts/
ruff format --check src/ tests/ scripts/
mypy src/clover_mcp/

Correctness eval + latency/load benchmark against a sandbox: uv run python scripts/benchmark.py — methodology, results, and failure analysis in docs/eval.md.

Architecture (diagrams + module map): docs/ARCHITECTURE.md. Run a 5-minute demo: uv run python scripts/demo.py (or the runbook in docs/DEMO.md).

Observability

All observability output goes to stderr (stdout carries the MCP stdio protocol).

  • Audit logging (on by default) — every write emits one structured JSON line: {"ts":"2026-07-02T…Z","audit":"write","method":"PUT","path":"/items/…","status":200,"merchant":"…"}. The UTC ts records when; in multi-tenant mode a tenant field records who. No request bodies or secrets. Disable with CLOVER_AUDIT_LOG=false.

  • Latency logging — set CLOVER_LATENCY_LOG=true to emit a latency_ms line per Clover HTTP call.

  • Distributed tracing (optional) — install the OpenTelemetry extra and point it at your collector; every Clover call becomes a span. Without it, tracing is a zero-cost no-op (no dependency added):

    uv pip install -e ".[otel]"
    export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:4317
    export OTEL_SERVICE_NAME=clover-mcp

You are solely responsible for: complying with Clover's developer/API terms and trademark-usage policy; safeguarding your tokens; and meeting any data-protection (e.g. GDPR/CCPA) and tax obligations for data you access. The write tools modify live merchant data — test in the sandbox first and use least-privilege tokens.

  • No card data, no payments. The server never handles payment card data (the shaping layer blocks it) and deliberately cannot capture payments, refund, or void. It is not a PCI-DSS solution.

  • Third-party API. This project only calls Clover's public REST API using the operator's credentials; it bundles no Clover SDK or proprietary code. Clover may change or restrict its API at any time, which may break functionality.

    Each tool targets a distinct resource or action, with clear boundaries even among the many list_* tools (orders, payments, refunds, items, categories, etc.). The only potential overlap, list_open_orders versus list_orders with a state filter, is explicitly documented as a convenience wrapper.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    Most tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (list_, get_, create_, set_, update_). Minor deviations include 'whoami' (single word), 'inventory_reorder_suggestions' (noun phrase instead of verb-first), and the mix of set_item_* vs. update_item_name.

    Tool Count1/5

    With 56 tools, the server far exceeds the threshold for an appropriate count. Even for a broad POS integration, 50+ tools is an extreme mismatch and will overwhelm agents with too many options.

    Completeness2/5

    The server provides extensive read-only reporting and some inventory/customer writes, but it lacks critical lifecycle operations: no payment capture/refund/void, no update/delete for orders or inventory items, and no order closing. Creates exist for orders and items but no way to complete or remove them, leaving obvious dead ends.
