Once approved, Claude will display the 11 tools exposed by the MCP server. For security and control, you can choose how Claude runs each tool:
- Ask every time (Default & Recommended): Claude asks for your explicit confirmation before querying your store.
- Always allow: Claude can query analytics or campaign rules directly without prompting every time a tool is called.
🎉 You're connected! Open a new chat in Claude and ask: "Create a volume discount bundle and add upsell offers for my store" to test your connection.

Once connected, try asking your AI assistant prompts like:
- "Can you set up my cart with product recommendations?"
- "Can you set up a three-tier reward progress bar at the top of my cart with free shipping at ₹700, a 5% discount at ₹1,799, and a free gift above ₹2,500?"
- "Can you use my store's default font and color theme throughout the cart?"
