## About

Connects to BestPrice.gr, a Greek price-comparison service. You can ask for a shopping recommendation based on needs and budget, look up products in the catalog, compare current merchant offers with shipping and delivered totals, and check how a price has moved against its 180-day median. All tools are read-only: they do not place orders, create alerts or read account data.

The server is hosted at https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp and uses streamable HTTP. No account or API key is needed for the four shopping tools. Optional account linking through OAuth exists only for price-drop event subscriptions. A Greek five-digit postcode is needed for delivered totals and completed basket plans.

## What it can do

- Get an evidence-backed buying recommendation from needs and budget
- Plan a read-only basket of two to five product families
- Search the catalog by name, model, category or barcode
- Compare merchant offers with shipping and delivered total
- Check price history and whether today's price is high, low or typical

## Tools (4)

- `get_shopping_decision`: Gives an evidence-backed recommendation, comparison, or read-only basket plan from a stated need… (read-only)
- `search_products`: Finds catalog products by name, model, category or barcode and returns product IDs and minimum… (read-only)
- `compare_offers`: Compares current Greek merchant offers for one product, with item price, shipping and delivered… (read-only)
- `get_price_history`: Summarises a product's price history, minimum and median, and classifies today's price. (read-only)

## Example prompts

- "Which laptop under 800 euros should I buy in Greece for programming?"
- "Find the Samsung Galaxy S25 and show the cheapest offers delivered to 11527."
- "Is now a good time to buy the Sony WH-1000XM5?"
- "Show the 90-day price history for this product."

## Install

### Claude Code

1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http bestprice https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp
```

2. Start Claude Code and type `/mcp`. **bestprice** should show as connected.

Add `--scope user` to make it available in every project, not just this one.

### Claude Desktop

1. Open **Settings → Connectors** and click **Add custom connector**.

2. Name it **BestPrice** and paste this URL:

```url
https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp
```

3. Click **Add**. Its tools appear in the chat’s tools menu.

Claude Desktop’s JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.

### claude.ai

1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:

[Add to claude.ai](<https://claude.ai/customize/connectors?modal=add-custom-connector&connectorName=BestPrice&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.bestprice.gr%2Fmcp>) (opens connector settings)

2. Check that the URL reads `https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp` and click **Add**.

3. Turn it on in a chat from the tools menu.

Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under **Organization settings → Connectors**.

### ChatGPT

1. On chatgpt.com, open **Settings → Security and login** and turn on **Developer mode**.

2. Go to `chatgpt.com/plugins` and click **+** to create an app for a remote MCP server.

3. Paste `https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp` as the server URL and choose **No authentication**.

Developer mode is available on the web for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts.

### Cursor

[Add to Cursor](<https://cursor.com/install-mcp?name=bestprice&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21jcC5iZXN0cHJpY2UuZ3IvbWNwIn0%3D>) (opens Cursor)

Or add it by hand to `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (all projects) or `.cursor/mcp.json` (this project):

`mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bestprice": {
      "url": "https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### VS Code

[Install in VS Code](<https://vscode.dev/redirect/mcp/install?name=bestprice&config=%7B%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.bestprice.gr%2Fmcp%22%7D>) (opens VS Code)

Or from a terminal:

```bash
code --add-mcp '{"name":"bestprice","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp"}'
```

Or commit it to the repo in `.vscode/mcp.json`:

`.vscode/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "servers": {
    "bestprice": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### Devin Desktop

1. Add it to `~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json` (macOS and Linux) or `%APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json` (Windows):

`mcp_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bestprice": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

2. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade.

Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads `serverUrl` (or `url`) for remote servers.

### Codex

```bash
codex mcp add bestprice --url https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp
```

Or edit `~/.codex/config.toml` directly:

`config.toml`:

```toml
[mcp_servers.bestprice]
url = "https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp"
```

### Gemini CLI

```bash
gemini mcp add --transport http bestprice https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp
```

This adds it to the current project. Add `-s user` to use it everywhere.

### Any client

Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: `serverUrl` in Devin Desktop, `httpUrl` in Gemini CLI’s settings file.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bestprice": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Zed puts servers under `context_servers` in its settings. Cline needs `"type": "streamableHttp"`, or it assumes SSE.

Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with `npx -y mcp-remote https://mcp.bestprice.gr/mcp`.
