Canopy API — Claude Code MCP server: features and setup
Canopy API lets an AI agent query Amazon product data, including search results, prices, reviews, and seller offers. Use it for product research or ASIN lookups.
claude mcp add --transport http mcp https://mcp.canopyapi.co/mcpWhat Canopy API does
Canopy API connects Claude Code and other supported clients to Amazon through MCP. Agents can search for products, compare prices and seller offers, inspect reviews, and retrieve product details by ASIN. Its tools are read-only.
The server uses Streamable HTTP. Connect to the hosted endpoint or run the project yourself; self-hosting requires a Canopy API key. Authentication supports OAuth 2.1 or an API key sent in a request header. Every request needs credentials, so the server returns HTTP 401 when they are missing or invalid.
What it helps with
- search Amazon for products by query
- compare prices and seller offers
- retrieve product reviews and ratings
- look up product details by ASIN
Example prompts for the agent
- Find Amazon products matching “wireless keyboard” and compare their prices.
- Show reviews and ratings for the product with ASIN B0XXXXXXXX.
- Check seller offers and stock estimates for this Amazon product.
