HasData/amazon-mcp

A hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives Claude, Cursor, Windsurf and any other MCP client four read-only Amazon tools. Run a keyword search, read one product by its ASIN, look up a seller, and page through what that seller stocks, all as structured JSON, with no Amazon developer account and nothing to host.
It reads public Amazon pages that a signed-out visitor can see, on any of the 23 regional domains.
**1,000 free credits every month, no card required**, which is 100 Amazon calls at the 10-credit rate.

What you need
An MCP client and a HasData API key from the dashboard, free to create with no card, and the free tier covers about 100 calls a month at the 10-credit rate. This is a remote server, so the simplest path is a URL and an x-api-key header, with no container to run. A client that only speaks stdio reaches it through a thin launcher, published as @hasdata/amazon-mcp on npm and hasdata-amazon-mcp on PyPI, shown below.
Quick start
The server URL is the same for every client. We run it hands-on in Claude Code and Claude Desktop. The other blocks follow each client's own documented format for a remote server.
| Field | Value |
| :--- | :--- |
| URL | https://mcp.hasdata.com/mcp?apis=amazon |
| Transport | HTTP, streamable |
| Auth header | x-api-key: HASDATA_API_KEY |
Clients with OAuth support can add the same URL as a connector and sign in without putting a key in a config file.
Claude Code
Claude Desktop
Settings, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, then paste https://mcp.hasdata.com/mcp?apis=amazon and sign in.
For the config-file route, Claude Desktop loads only local (stdio) servers, so it reaches a remote server through a stdio launcher. The @hasdata/amazon-mcp package is that launcher, and it reads the key from the environment. Add this to claude_desktop_config.json:
For Python instead of Node, swap the launcher for the PyPI package, which uvx runs without a manual install:
Cursor
~/.cursor/mcp.json for every project, or .cursor/mcp.json for one:
Windsurf
~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json. Windsurf calls the field serverUrl, not url:
VS Code
.vscode/mcp.json in the workspace:
Example prompts
Each of these lands on one tool, or on two in sequence when the second needs an identifier the first returns.
- Find laptop stands under $40 on Amazon and sort them by average customer review.
- What does ASIN B0DHJ7SBDR cost right now, and how many other sellers offer it?
- Compare the price of this ASIN on amazon.com and amazon.de.
- Who is the seller behind ASIN B0DHJ7SBDR, and what is their lifetime rating?
- Page through everything seller ATQQBVXK188KS stocks and pull out the discounted items.
- Search for wireless earbuds with delivery to 10001 and tell me which arrive fastest.
A prompt that names a product rather than an ASIN takes two calls, one search to resolve the ASIN and one product lookup to read it. A prompt that names a seller by brand rather than by seller ID takes the same shape, one product lookup to find the seller ID and one seller lookup to read the profile.
