WebDevs MCP module

An Adobe Commerce Marketplace module from WebDevs that lets AI assistants explore, search and analyse a Magento 2 catalog through MCP, using an API key and without modifying store data.

What it is and why it matters

What it does

• Catalog exploration and product search for AI assistants
• Analysis of products, categories and attributes
• API-key authentication managed in the Magento admin
• No write operations on store data

Best for

Magento 2 merchants who prefer a Marketplace-vetted module for read-only catalog questions.

How to connect it

1. Check the Marketplace listing for compatibility. The documentation lists Adobe Commerce (cloud), Adobe Commerce (on-prem) and Magento Open Source on 2.4, current version 1.0.1. Confirm your exact store version with your developer first.
2. Install the module on a staging copy of your store before production, following the vendor documentation and the standard Marketplace installation process for your edition. The listing shows a price of $0.00, but confirm this on the listing.
3. In the Magento admin, open the module configuration. As described in the documentation, you can enable or disable the MCP server, set a service name and generate the API key. Keep it disabled until you are ready to test.
4. Enable the server and copy the generated API key into a password manager. Note the dedicated endpoint address as described in the documentation.
5. In your AI assistant or automation tool, add a custom MCP connection using the endpoint and API key, following that tool's own instructions and the module's user guide. The module runs on your own store, so the assistant must be able to reach it over the network.
6. Test with a few simple catalog questions and compare answers with what you see in the admin before sharing access with others.

Exact commands and addresses change. Use the official documentation for the current steps.

Questions you can ask it

• List all top-level categories and how many products each one contains.
• Find products priced between a lower and upper limit in a given category and show their key attributes.
• Which product attributes can I filter by, and what options are available for the color attribute?
• Search the catalog for products with a given name keyword and summarise which categories they sit in.

What it cannot do

• It cannot create, edit or delete products, categories or any other store data, because the module is read-only.
• Based on the documentation, it covers catalog structure and product data only. Orders, customers, inventory changes and reporting on sales are not described.
• It does not host itself outside your store. It runs inside your Magento install, so your hosting must be reachable by the AI tool, and the documentation does not explain local development setups.

Staying safe

• The API key is the only gate to the endpoint. Treat it like a password, share it only with tools you trust, and regenerate it if it may have leaked, as supported in the admin configuration.
• Catalog data sent to an AI assistant leaves your store and is handled under that assistant's terms. Check whether unreleased products, cost-related attributes or private pricing could be exposed through custom attributes.
• Install and test on staging first. The module is third party GPL-3.0 code, and although it passed Marketplace checks, review its permissions with your developer and use the enable switch to turn it off when not in use.

Watch out for: Marketplace extension from a third party: confirm the supported Magento versions, pricing and the exact tool list on the listing.
