# MercadoLibre MCP Server

An MCP server that provides access to MercadoLibre API.

<a href="https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/hgsefxwq4c"><img width="380" height="200" src="https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/hgsefxwq4c/badge" alt="MercadoLibre Server MCP server" /></a>

**IMPORTANT**: due to changes in MercadoLibre's API policies, it is no longer possible to access their search API. As a result, we have had to deprecate the `search_products` tool. This change is in compliance with MercadoLibre's new restrictions on API usage. Other tools remain functional and will continue to be supported.

## Features

### Tools
- `search_products` - **DEPRECATED**: Search products in MercadoLibre, and return a list of products. (No longer available due to API policy changes)
  - `query` - The search query
  - `category` - The category to search in
  - `filters` - The filters to apply
- `product_reviews` - Get product reviews
- `product_description` - Get product description
- `seller_reputation` - Get seller reputation

## Setup

### Prerequisites

You'll need a MercadoLibre Client ID and Client Secret to use this server.  You can get one for free at https://developers.mercadolibre.com/, create an application and get the credentials.

Once you have the credentials, you can set the `CLIENT_ID` and `CLIENT_SECRET` environment variables.  And theres also the need to set the `SITE_ID` environment variable to the site you want to use.

### Mercado Libre Site ID
- MLA: Argentina (default)
- MLB: Brasil
- MCO: Colombia
- MEX: México
- MLU: Uruguay
- MLC: Chile

### Installation

There are two ways to use this server:

#### Installing via Smithery

To install MercadoLibre MCP Server for Claude Desktop automatically via [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/server/@lumile/mercadolibre-mcp):

```bash
npx -y @smithery/cli install @lumile/mercadolibre-mcp --client claude
```

#### Option 1: NPX (Recommended)
Add this configuration to your Claude Desktop config file:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mercadolibre-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mercadolibre-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CLIENT_ID": "<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>",
        "CLIENT_SECRET": "<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET>",
        "SITE_ID": "<YOUR_SITE_ID>"
      }
    }
  }
}
```
#### Option 2: Local Installation
1. Clone the repository
2. Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```

3. Build the server:
```bash
npm run build
```

4. Add this configuration to your Claude Desktop config:
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mercadolibre-mcp": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/path/to/mercadolibre-mcp/dist/index.js"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CLIENT_ID": "<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>",
        "CLIENT_SECRET": "<YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET>",
        "SITE_ID": "<YOUR_SITE_ID>"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### Debugging

Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector), which is available as a package script:

```bash
npm run inspector
```

The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
