Details
From the project READMETolstoy MCP
Connect any MCP client — Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini, and more — to Tolstoy, the agentic platform for AI-native ecommerce brands. Manage your Tolstoy workspace right from chat: your store's products, your media library, uploads, saved models, templates, projects, and credit usage.
Tolstoy exposes its remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP, secured with OAuth 2.1 + PKCE — no API keys to paste, your client runs the OAuth sign-in on first connect.
| Server | Endpoint | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Tolstoy | https://apilb.gotolstoy.com/mcp/v1/mcp | Your Tolstoy workspace — search your products and media library, upload media, and read your saved models, templates, projects, and usage. |
| Tolstoy Closet | https://apilb.gotolstoy.com/mcp/v1/closet/mcp | A shopper's private closet — save, find, and remove the clothes they own, and continue in the Shopbots app. |
Start with one product
The Claude and Cursor plugins include the tolstoy-product-media skill: confirm the product in your store, shortlist the library media that fits it, and upload what is missing.

Codex CLI
codex mcp add targets STDIO servers, so add the remote server to ~/.codex/config.toml and run the OAuth login:

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
