Perplexity

Query ApparelMagic styles directly in Claude Desktop

The `list_styles` and `get_product` tools pull your active catalog data directly into your local workspace using this MCP server. Instead of logging into a slow browser portal, you ask your agent to pull current collection specs, fabric details, and active SKUs. This local connection runs through stdio, making the data retrieval immediate. Your agent can instantly compare style details against your local tech packs or spec sheets without manual copy-pasting.

Track open sales orders and customer profiles

The `list_orders` and `get_customer` tools expose real-time purchase histories and buyer profiles to your workspace via the MCP protocol. You can pinpoint which wholesale accounts are waiting on shipments or track down specific order values on the fly. Having this data inside your workspace lets you draft personalized follow-up emails instantly. Your agent reads the order status, checks the customer's history, and writes the message based on actual ERP records.

Run rapid inventory and shipment checks

The `list_inventory` and `get_shipment` tools verify physical stock levels and carrier updates without leaving your desktop app. You get the exact numbers sitting in your warehouse and the tracking status of outgoing cargo. If a retailer complains about a late delivery, you don't need to open three different tabs to investigate. Your agent pulls the shipment status, compares it to the inventory record, and tells you exactly where the breakdown happened.
