io.github.sanjana-pier39/negotiate-mcp
Negotiate prices at any negotiate.v1 store. AI shopper tools for Claude.
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
negotiate-mcpclaude mcp add negotiate-mcp -- uvx negotiate-mcp==0.1.1
{
"mcpServers": {
"negotiate-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"negotiate-mcp==0.1.1"
]
}
}
}

negotiate-mcp
Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the negotiate.v1 protocol. Once installed in Claude Desktop, Cowork, Claude Code, or any other MCP-aware client, your Claude gains five native tools for negotiating with any negotiate.v1-compliant store.
What you get
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
discover_store(domain) | Probe a domain to check if it's negotiable. Returns the protocol descriptor. |
list_products(domain) | Enumerate negotiable products at the store. |
start_negotiation(domain, product_id) | Open a chat session with the merchant agent. |
send_message(next_url, message) | Send one shopper turn. |
read_history(history_url) | Read the running history of a session. |
The agent uses these like a human would use a browser: discover the store, pick a product, start a chat, send turns until the deal closes.

Install
The recommended path uses uv — no virtualenv plumbing, picks the right Python automatically.
# install uv if you don't have it (macOS):
brew install uv
# then point Claude Desktop / Cowork / Claude Code at it (see below).
# uvx will install the package the first time it's invoked.
If you'd rather use plain pip:
pip install negotiate-mcp
Wire it into Claude Desktop
- Open your Claude Desktop config:
- macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json - Windows:
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
- macOS:
Add this entry under
mcpServers(creating the file if it doesn't exist):{ "mcpServers": { "negotiate-agent": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["negotiate-mcp"] } } }- Quit and re-open Claude Desktop. The five tools should appear in any new conversation.
If you installed with plain pip instead of uv, replace the command/args block with:
"command": "negotiate-mcp",
"args": []
Wire it into Cowork or Claude Code
Same negotiate-mcp command. Add it to the corresponding MCP config in those clients (consult their docs for exact paths). The tool surface is identical.
Try it
Once installed, in a fresh chat:
Negotiate for a Dyson HP07 at negotiate.pier39.ai. Try to get it under $500. Bonus points for the engraved gift box.
Claude will call discover_store("negotiate.pier39.ai"), find the HP07 in the product list, call start_negotiation, then drive the conversation through send_message until closed: true. No prompt acrobatics needed.
Test standalone (no Claude required)
# Run the server on stdio:
uvx negotiate-mcp
# Or, if you've used pip:
python -m negotiate_mcp
Most useful when paired with the mcp CLI to inspect tool definitions and exercise them by hand.
Adding more stores
The connector works against any negotiate.v1-compliant store, not just the Atlas reference (negotiate.pier39.ai). As stores adopt the protocol, just point your shopper agent at their domain — the same five tools work everywhere.
See PROTOCOL.md for the full spec.
