Can I add items to my order after the shopper has been assigned?

Yes! As long as the order status is currently 'shopping', you can use the `update_order` tool to pass a JSON array with new product IDs and quantities. The Shopper's app will update dynamically with the new additions.

How can I find out the exact location of my delivery?

If the order has reached the 'delivering' status, you can invoke the `track_order` tool with your order ID. It will return the last known latitude/longitude of the courier along with the ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) to your destination address.

Does this work across all LATAM countries where Cornershop operates?

Yes. The API uses global endpoints. When mapping stores using `list_stores`, you supply your local latitude and longitude to receive the stores available in your immediate geographic region (Chile, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Peru, etc).

Cornershop + Claude Desktop FAQ

Common questions about integrating Cornershop MCP Server with Claude Desktop.

How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?

When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.

What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?

Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.

Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?

Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.

Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?

Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.

Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?

Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
