Tolstoy MCP

Connect any MCP client — Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini, and more — to Tolstoy, the agentic platform for AI-native ecommerce brands. Manage your Tolstoy workspace right from chat: your store's products, your media library, uploads, saved models, templates, projects, and credit usage.

Tolstoy exposes its remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP, secured with OAuth 2.1 + PKCE — no API keys to paste, your client runs the OAuth sign-in on first connect.

Start with one product

The Claude and Cursor plugins include the tolstoy-product-media skill: confirm the product in your store, shortlist the library media that fits it, and upload what is missing.

• get_generation — read a generation's status and the library items it saved.

• list_voices — search the voice library and its voice previews.

• get_usage — read your workspace's credit balances and usage for this billing period.

• open_tolstoy — open Tolstoy in the client to browse your library, models, templates, and conversations by hand.

Tolstoy Closet

• search_closet — list or search the shopper's saved clothes.

• remove_closet_items — remove saved items.

• get_shopbots_link — create a private link to continue in the Shopbots app.

App-aware clients (ChatGPT, Claude) also get an interactive Tolstoy view rendered inline in chat. It calls a few more tools that the model does not see.

Connect

1. In your MCP client, add a custom connector / remote MCP server.

2. Paste the endpoint from the table above.

3. Complete the OAuth prompt: sign in to Tolstoy, or for Tolstoy Closet, approve the private closet connection.

Per-client setup (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Codex, Perplexity, Goose, Cherry Studio, and more) is available in the Tolstoy platform under Settings → MCP.

Claude plugin

This repository is also a Claude plugin: .claude-plugin/plugin.json and .mcp.json. The plugin adds the Tolstoy workspace server and the tolstoy-product-media skill. Load it locally with claude --plugin-dir . from a clone of this repository.

Cursor Marketplace plugin

This repository includes a Cursor plugin manifest in .cursor-plugin/plugin.json. Install the repository as a local plugin while developing, or install Tolstoy from the Cursor Marketplace. The plugin adds the Tolstoy workspace server.

Example client config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tolstoy": { "url": "https://apilb.gotolstoy.com/mcp/v1/mcp" }
  }
}

Codex CLI

codex mcp add targets STDIO servers, so add the remote server to ~/.codex/config.toml and run the OAuth login:

[mcp_servers.tolstoy]
url = "https://apilb.gotolstoy.com/mcp/v1/mcp"

codex mcp login tolstoy

Authentication

OAuth 2.1 with PKCE. Discovery via RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata at each server's /.well-known endpoints. A Tolstoy connection is bound to the Tolstoy workspace you authorize with. A Tolstoy Closet connection gets its own private guest closet after the shopper approves it. It needs no Tolstoy account; get_shopbots_link links it to a Shopbots account.

Registry

Published in the official MCP Registry:

• io.github.GoTolstoy/tolstoy — the main Tolstoy server

Its server.json is registry/tolstoy.server.json. Tolstoy Closet's (io.github.GoTolstoy/closet, not yet published) is next to it. Tolstoy runs no other server. The older io.github.GoTolstoy/studio, library and shopper entries are retired (status deleted); studio is replaced by tolstoy at the same endpoint. The publish workflow's set-status action changes a server's status over GitHub OIDC.
