Shop Nobi for agents
Connect agents to the Shop Nobi search engine
Give an agent product search across curated online stores, with seller links it can hand back to a shopper. Shop Nobi is an online search engine; its public MCP connection currently returns product listings, not service listings or every offering on the web.
No Nobi account or API key. Read-only tools cannot place orders or take payments. Purchases happen on the seller's site.

search_productsChoose where you build
Each path connects to the same public product-search server. Pick the client you already use.
These are setup routes, not claims of a platform partnership or marketplace approval.
Any remote MCP client
Use Streamable HTTP with this server address. Discover the live tool schemas with tools/list and approve tool use in your client.

Build with your framework
These frameworks speak MCP. Point them at the server address above and its tools appear. Each card links to a runnable example.
Install a plugin or add the server
The public Shop Nobi plugin adds a product-search skill and the hosted MCP connection. Run claude plugin marketplace add Locusive/shop-nobi-claude-plugin, then claude plugin install shop-nobi@locusive. For a server-only connection, run:
claude mcp add --transport http shop-nobi 'https://api.nobi.ai/v1/shop/mcp?source=nobi_website'Or merge this into your project's .mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"shop-nobi": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://api.nobi.ai/v1/shop/mcp?source=nobi_website"
}
}
}Open /mcp in Claude Code to confirm the connection and review client approval. Claude Code setup reference.
Install the extension
The public Shop Nobi extension connects the hosted tools. Run gemini extensions install https://github.com/Locusive/shop-nobi-gemini-extension. For a server-only connection, use:
gemini mcp add --transport http shop-nobi 'https://api.nobi.ai/v1/shop/mcp?source=nobi_website'Run gemini mcp list to check the connection, then review tool-use prompts. Gemini CLI setup reference.
Add the MCP connection
Add Shop Nobi to Cursor opens Cursor's direct MCP setup. Confirm the connection in Cursor's MCP settings before asking its agent to search. The public repository also contains a Cursor plugin manifest and shared product-search skill, but a Cursor marketplace listing has not been verified. The direct link installs only the MCP connection.
Use the standard server address
In VS Code, run MCP: Add Server, choose HTTP, enter the server address above and name it shop-nobi. Choose where to save it and review client prompts. VS Code setup reference.
What the tools return
Ask for a product in ordinary language. search_products can return names, stores, prices and links when available. find_shop_nobi_page can return an existing Shop Nobi page for an exact product topic.
search_products: Search products across online stores.find_shop_nobi_page: Find an existing Shop Nobi shopping page for an exact topic.get_product_details: Get a product's full details: specs, variants, images, price, availability, brand and category.compare_products: Compare two or more products side by side on the attributes they share.check_price_and_availability: Check the current price, currency and stock for one or more products.find_alternatives: Find similar products across stores, excluding the original one.
Shopify IDs require the merchant domain
When sending a Shopify product or variant ID, include the selling merchant's domain as storeDomain, such as example.com. Use sourceProductId for a Shopify product and sourceVariantId for a Shopify variant only when the live tools/list schema supports them. A known Nobi merchantId can provide equivalent merchant context.
Nobi id, productId and variantId identify our own catalog records. Never put Shopify IDs or SKUs in those fields. If the schema accepts only id, use the Nobi variant ID returned by search. See the response guide for complete examples.
The tools are not a general REST catalog API, price-history feed or checkout. A result may omit a price, image, seller or link. Check current price, stock and delivery at the seller, keep any returned commission notice beside its link, and read our privacy policy.
