swiggy-lyr

Swiggy ships three separate official MCP servers — Food delivery, Instamart groceries, Dineout reservations. Each needs its own connection, and nothing stands between an agent and a one-tap COD order that cannot be cancelled.

swiggy-lyr is a local stdio server that proxies all three into one. Your agent config lists a single entry; every tool arrives namespaced (food_, instamart_, dineout_); one OAuth token covers everything; and ordering is blocked behind two explicit safety layers.

[08/2026] Live on production: OAuth consent round-trip completed · 44 upstream tools discovered across all three streams · real search chain executed (get_addresses → search_restaurants returned live restaurant data) · all four high-risk tools verified to block without confirmation.

The three streams

Tool schemas are pulled from the upstream servers at startup — when Swiggy changes their stack, swiggy-lyr follows without a code change here.

Related MCP server: wolt-mcp

Order safety

COD orders placed through Swiggy cannot be cancelled. So mutating tools are off unless you switch them on — twice.

    A["agent calls\nfood_confirm_order"] --> B{"LAYER 1\nSWIGGY_LYR_ALLOW_ORDERS=1?"}

    B -- yes --> C{"LAYER 2\nconfirm=true?"}
    C -- no --> X2["blocked + hint"]

Layer 1 only (env required): cart updates/clears, create_cart, apply_food_coupon Both layers (env and confirm=true): *_confirm_order, instamart_checkout, food_place_food_order, dineout_book_table

Everything else — search, menus, addresses, slots, order history — always works.

Quick start

Fresh machine, one command (bootstraps uv if missing — uv then provisions Python itself):

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ishan-parihar/swiggy-lyr/main/install.sh | bash

Already have uv? The direct equivalent:

uv tool install git+https://github.com/ishan-parihar/swiggy-lyr.git

Then authenticate and verify:

swiggy-lyr --login      # one-time browser consent (~5 day token)
swiggy-lyr --status

PyPI: once the repo is configured as a trusted publisher on PyPI, pushing a v* tag publishes the package and uv tool install swiggy-lyr becomes the shortest path. The workflows are already in place (.github/workflows/publish.yml).

Upgrade / reinstall / remove:

uv tool upgrade swiggy-lyr          # pull latest main
uv tool install --force --reinstall git+https://github.com/ishan-parihar/swiggy-lyr.git
uv tool uninstall swiggy-lyr

Point your agent at it:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "swiggy": { "command": "swiggy-lyr", "args": [] }
  }
}

First conversation ideas:

"What did I order from Swiggy food this week?" → food_get_food_orders "Find me a highly rated dosa place near home under ₹200 for two." → food_search_restaurants "Add oats, milk and bananas to my Instamart cart." → instamart_update_cart (gated)

How it works

your agent ⇄ stdio FastMCP ⇄ dynamic proxy ⇄ mcp.swiggy.com/{food, im, dineout}
                                   │
                    tools/list at startup → typed local wrappers
                    401 → silent refresh (when Swiggy issues refresh tokens)
                    401 without refresh → re-login hint, never a crash

No scraping, no cookies, no reverse-engineered endpoints — just Swiggy's official OAuth 2.1 + PKCE flow against their published MCP servers, discovered via RFC 9728 metadata.

CLI reference

Troubleshooting

• --token BEARER alone is rejected — tokens are stored only through the login path: swiggy-lyr --login --token BEARER.

• "Cannot bind callback port" during login — another login may be running; set SWIGGY_LYR_PORT=9877 (or any free port) and retry.

• Consent page rejects the redirect — Swiggy whitelists specific callback shapes (http://localhost/callback among them). If their validation ever tightens against port-bearing URIs, override with SWIGGY_REDIRECT_URI="http://localhost/callback" and open http://localhost/callback manually after consenting.

• Streams missing at startup — each stream is discovered independently and in parallel; a stream that fails logs an ERROR line and the rest keep serving. Zero reachable streams refuses to start (typed error, exit 2).

Honest limits

• Tokens last ~5 days; Swiggy currently returns no refresh token, so expiry means one browser click (--login). The code auto-refreshes silently if they start issuing them.

• Keep the Swaggy app closed while an agent works — Swiggy warns about session conflicts.

• Ordering supports COD only (Swiggy's own limitation), which is exactly why layer 2 exists.

• Third-party development sits inside Swiggy's security-review window — treat this as personal-use tooling.

• get_orders history has known staleness quirks in Swiggy's upstream (#36).
