Perplexity

Controlling Order Flow via MCP Server

Accept a pending order using `accept_order` to start prep. You'll then mark preparation started with `mark_order_prep_started`, followed by calling `mark_order_ready` when the food is staged for pickup. These steps guide the order through its critical stages, ensuring accurate timestamps and maintaining good restaurant ratings on the platform.

Tracking Uber Eats Deliveries with Claude Desktop

Get real-time progress using `get_delivery_status`. Need to check if an entire batch of orders needs action? Use `get_orders` to filter and list all pending, accepting, or completed deliveries by ID. This gives you a clear view of the entire order queue, letting you answer customer questions or coordinate with couriers accurately.

Managing Menu Availability

Check the full menu structure using `get_menus` to see what items are available. If ingredients run low, call `update_menu_item_availability` to mark specific items as out-of-stock (available=false). This tool requires an external store ID and a menu item ID, letting you programmatically keep your online offerings accurate.
