qsale-mcp

Model Context Protocol server for the QSale headless commerce platform.

Lets an LLM (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, any MCP-compatible client) operate a QSale tenant through the same REST API the admin panel uses: catalog, content pages, navigation, segments, dictionaries, mailings, promotion triggers, redirects, and admin task triggers.

All write operations follow a propose → review → apply pattern: the model first stages the change and returns a before/after diff for you to read; nothing hits the backend until you say so.

Installation

Requires Python 3.11+.

pip install git+https://github.com/qsale-io/qsale-mcp-server.git

Or with uv:

uvx --from git+https://github.com/qsale-io/qsale-mcp-server.git qsale-mcp

Configuration

The server reads its configuration from environment variables — no flags, no config files.

Obtaining a token and a company id

1. Sign in to your QSale admin panel.

2. Open Settings → API tokens and create a new employee token. Save it somewhere safe — it is shown only once.

3. The company UUID is visible in the admin URL or under Settings → Company.

Self-hosted installations override QSALE_API_BASE to point at their own console host (e.g. https://console.example.com).

Wiring into Claude Code

Add to your .mcp.json (or the global Claude Code MCP config):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "qsale": {
      "command": "qsale-mcp",
      "env": {
        "QSALE_API_TOKEN": "your-token-here",
        "QSALE_COMPANY_ID": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
      }
    }
  }
}

For Claude Desktop, the configuration file lives at ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows) with the same mcpServers shape.

Available tools

The server registers ~100 tools, grouped by domain. See the source files or the model's tools/list output for the full list; below is the high level shape.

Read

Listing and detail tools for:

• Product categories, products

• Content pages

• Navigation groups and items

• URL redirects and redirect sites

• Mail templates and template images

• Promotion triggers and trigger categories

• Dictionaries and dictionary items

• Segments, segment properties, segment filters, segment property choices

• Frontend settings

Write — propose / apply

Two-phase writes that stage the change in memory, return a diff, and only hit the backend when apply_* is called. Cover:

• propose/apply_page_update

• propose/apply_navigation_item_create + update

• propose/apply_category_create + delete

• propose/apply_mail_template_create + update

• propose/apply_promotion_trigger_create

• propose/apply_dictionary_create + delete

• propose/apply_dictionary_item_create + delete

• propose/apply_segment_create + delete

• propose/apply_segment_property_create + update + delete

• propose/apply_segment_property_choice_create + delete

• propose/apply_segment_filter_create + update + delete

• propose/apply_link_di_segment + unlink_di_segment

• propose/apply_link_pc_segment + unlink_pc_segment

Admin task triggers

Schedule asynchronous backend tasks via the admin task endpoints:

• propose/apply_run_update_all_dicts

• propose/apply_run_update_dict

• propose/apply_run_set_category_for_products

Direct writes (no two-phase)

Idempotent or low-impact operations are exposed as single calls:

• create_redirect, update_redirect, create_redirect_site, update_redirect_site

• update_category

• update_frontend_setting_json, set_frontend_setting_file

• create_mail_template_image

Batch

• bulk_apply([proposal_ids]) — one approval covers N already-staged proposals of any kind. Stops on the first failure and returns per-proposal results.

How writes work

propose_* ──► in-memory Proposal{ id, kind, fields, before }  (no HTTP write)
                       │
                       ▼
            you read the diff in chat
                       │
                       ▼
apply_*  ──► REST POST/PATCH/DELETE on console.qsale.io

Proposals live only in process memory — restarting the MCP server discards them. This is intentional: a stale proposal should never be reused after a code reload.
