Install

Getting a token
Tokens are created in the Krónan Snjallverslun user settings. You need an account with Audkenni (Iceland's electronic ID) login. Go to your user or customer group settings page and create an access token. Tokens are prefixed with act_.
Usage with Claude Code
Add to your project's .claude/settings.local.json or global ~/.claude/settings.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"kronan": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["kronan-mcp"],
"env": {
"KRONAN_ACCESS_TOKEN": "act_your_token_here"
}
}
}
}
Then ask Claude things like:
- "Search for milk on Krónan"
- "What's in my shopping note?"
- "Add 2x of SKU 02500188 to my checkout"
- "Show my recent orders"
Architecture
src/
├── client.ts HTTP client wrapping all Krónan API endpoints
├── index.ts MCP server registering tools via @modelcontextprotocol/sdk
└── types.ts TypeScript interfaces matching the OpenAPI schema
Auth is Authorization: AccessToken <token> on every request. Rate limit is 200 requests per 200 seconds per user. The client detects 429 responses and tells the caller to wait.
All prices are integers in ISK (no decimals). 230 means 230 kr.
Errors go through a typed KronanApiError with status codes. The token is scrubbed from error messages so it doesn't leak to the LLM. Auth failures and rate limits get their own user-facing messages.
set_order_substitution and set_line_completion use read-then-toggle patterns. They're not idempotent. Don't retry on timeout without checking current state first.
