How do I connect this MCP to my AI client?

You subscribe through Vinkius and then connect your client, such as Claude or Cursor, in one click. Vinkius handles the hosting and credentials for you.

What credentials do I need?

You will need your Meituan Waimai App ID and App Secret to authenticate your restaurant's account.

Can I manage multiple restaurants at once?

Yes. You can use the restaurant info and order list capabilities to manage different POIs from a single interface.

Does updating stock happen immediately?

Yes. When you use the update stock capability, the changes reflect on the customer-facing menu right away.

Can the AI handle the actual money for refunds?

The AI processes the refund request through the Meituan system, which then returns the funds to the customer's original payment method.

How do I get my Meituan Waimai App ID and App Secret?

Log in to the Meituan Waimai Developer Console, navigate to API Documentation > Access Guide, and register your application. You'll receive an App ID and App Secret. Make sure your application has the required API permissions for order management, menu access, and refund handling. The signature algorithm uses MD5 hashing of sorted parameters combined with your App Secret.

What's the order lifecycle in Meituan Waimai?

The typical order flow is: 1) Pending (待确认, status=1). Customer placed order, awaiting merchant confirmation. 2) Confirmed (已确认, status=3). Merchant accepted the order, kitchen starts preparation. 3) Delivering (配送中, status=5). Food is out for delivery with rider. 4) Completed (已完成, status=7). Customer received the order, payment settled. 5) Cancelled (已取消, status=8). Order was cancelled by merchant or customer. At each stage, you can query details, and merchants can confirm, mark delivering, or complete the order.

How do I handle stock management and sold-out items?

Use the update_stock capability to set stock quantities for menu items. Set stock=0 to mark an item as sold out (it will immediately disappear from the customer menu). Set a positive number to replenish stock. Get the food ID from the list_menus capability first. This is critical during peak hours when ingredients run out. quickly updating stock prevents customers from ordering unavailable items and reduces refund requests.

MCP VERIFIED · PRODUCTION READY · VINKIUS GUARANTEED

Waiting for input…

Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

One connector, every AI

Meituan Waimai works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Meituan Waimai to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.
