# Spree Commerce Docs MCP server

> Search and read the Spree Commerce documentation, API references and guides from your AI assistant.

- Listing: https://mcp.tc/i/spree-commerce-docs
- Connect: use the server's own URL `https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp` (no sign-in); clients connect to it directly. The listing link is a page, not an MCP endpoint.
- Type: remote (Streamable HTTP)
- Auth: none
- Category: [Docs & Knowledge](https://mcp.tc/c/docs-knowledge)
- Vendor: Spree Commerce
- Homepage: <https://spreecommerce.org>
- Repository: <https://github.com/spree/spree/tree/HEAD/docs>

## About

Connects to the Spree Commerce documentation site, so an assistant can search guides, code examples and API references for the open-source headless commerce platform. It can also read full pages and OpenAPI specs through a read-only virtual filesystem, and send feedback about incorrect or outdated pages to the docs team.

Runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp. No sign-in or API key is needed. Apart from the feedback tool, the server is read-only.

## What it can do

- Search Spree documentation for guides, examples and API references
- Read full documentation pages and OpenAPI specs by path
- Run read-only grep-style queries over the docs filesystem
- Report incorrect or outdated documentation pages to the docs team

## Tools (3)

- `search_spree_commerce_documentation`: Search the Spree docs for guides, code examples and API references, returning titles and links. (read-only)
- `query_docs_filesystem_spree_commerce_documentation`: Run read-only shell-like commands over a virtual filesystem of docs pages and OpenAPI specs. (read-only)
- `submit_feedback`: Report an incorrect, outdated or incomplete documentation page to the docs team.

## Example prompts

- "How do I set up a multi-vendor marketplace in Spree?"
- "Search the Spree docs for how price lists work in B2B stores."
- "Show me the Spree Store API endpoint for creating a cart."
- "Find the docs page on configuring markets and currencies in Spree."

## Install

### Claude Code

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

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http spree-commerce-docs https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp
```

2. Start Claude Code and type `/mcp`. **spree-commerce-docs** should show as connected.

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

### Claude Desktop

1. Open **Customize → Connectors**, click **+ Add**, then **Add custom connector**.

2. Name it **Spree Commerce Docs** and paste this URL:

```url
https://spreecommerce.org/docs/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=Spree%20Commerce%20Docs&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fspreecommerce.org%2Fdocs%2Fmcp>) (opens connector settings)

2. Check that the URL reads `https://spreecommerce.org/docs/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, go to **Plugins**, select **+**, then **Add custom MCP server**.

2. Enter a name for the server.

3. Under **Connection**, paste `https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp` as the server URL, then for authentication choose **No authentication**.

4. Check **I understand and want to continue**, then select **Create as a plugin**.

Whether you can add a custom MCP server depends on your ChatGPT plan and your workspace permissions (in Business workspaces, admins and owners can).

### Cursor

[Add to Cursor](<https://cursor.com/install-mcp?name=spree-commerce-docs&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL3NwcmVlY29tbWVyY2Uub3JnL2RvY3MvbWNwIn0%3D>) (opens Cursor)

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

`mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "spree-commerce-docs": {
      "url": "https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### VS Code

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

Or from a terminal:

```bash
code --add-mcp '{"name":"spree-commerce-docs","type":"http","url":"https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp"}'
```

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

`.vscode/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "servers": {
    "spree-commerce-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://spreecommerce.org/docs/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": {
    "spree-commerce-docs": {
      "serverUrl": "https://spreecommerce.org/docs/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 spree-commerce-docs --url https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp
```

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

`config.toml`:

```toml
[mcp_servers.spree-commerce-docs]
url = "https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp"
```

### Gemini CLI

```bash
gemini mcp add --transport http spree-commerce-docs https://spreecommerce.org/docs/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": {
    "spree-commerce-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://spreecommerce.org/docs/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://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp`.
