## About

Toolbox POD is a print-on-demand shop for custom tees and hoodies. The server lets an assistant browse the catalog, upload or generate artwork, activate designs, create products, prepare and place orders, read order status and contact support.

It runs as a hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint at https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp. Users sign in with OAuth with dynamic client registration, and a Toolbox POD account can be created during sign-in. Spending is limited to the amount the user allows, and access can be revoked at any time.

## What it can do

- Browse the catalog of tees and hoodies
- Upload artwork or generate AI designs
- See mockups on available colors
- Create products from designs
- Prepare quotes and place orders
- Check order status
- Contact support

## Install

### Claude Code

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

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http toolbox-pod https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp
```

2. Start Claude Code, type `/mcp`, pick **toolbox-pod** and choose **Authenticate**. A browser window opens for the Toolbox Brands LLC sign-in.

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 **Toolbox POD** and paste this URL:

```url
https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp
```

3. Click **Add**, then **Connect**, and sign in when Toolbox Brands LLC asks.

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=Toolbox%20POD&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.toolboxpod.com%2Fmcp>) (opens connector settings)

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

3. Click **Connect** and sign in when Toolbox Brands LLC asks.

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://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp` as the server URL, then for authentication choose **OAuth**. ChatGPT sends you to Toolbox Brands LLC to sign in.

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=toolbox-pod&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21jcC50b29sYm94cG9kLmNvbS9tY3AifQ%3D%3D>) (opens Cursor)

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

`mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "toolbox-pod": {
      "url": "https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Cursor shows **Needs authentication** next to the server. Click the button beside it to sign in.

### VS Code

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

Or from a terminal:

```bash
code --add-mcp '{"name":"toolbox-pod","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp"}'
```

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

`.vscode/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "servers": {
    "toolbox-pod": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

VS Code asks you to sign in the first time the server starts.

### 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": {
    "toolbox-pod": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

2. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade and sign in when asked.

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

### Codex

```bash
codex mcp add toolbox-pod --url https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp
codex mcp login toolbox-pod
```

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

`config.toml`:

```toml
[mcp_servers.toolbox-pod]
url = "https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp"
```

### Gemini CLI

```bash
gemini mcp add --transport http toolbox-pod https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/mcp
```

Then, inside Gemini CLI, run `/mcp auth toolbox-pod` to sign in.

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": {
    "toolbox-pod": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.toolboxpod.com/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.toolboxpod.com/mcp`.
