# BasketWatch MCP Server A [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server that exposes the **BasketWatch Irish grocery data** API as tools your AI agent can call directly. Works with **Claude Desktop**, **Continue.dev**, **Cursor**, and any other MCP-compatible client. > ~50,000 Irish supermarket SKUs across Aldi, Tesco, SuperValu and Dunnes > Stores. Refreshed every night. Now queryable by Claude. ## Try it with no key at all Install it, point it at the API, ask a question. With no key you get a live **50-row sample** on every tool, straight from this morning's scrape. Real prices, real promotions, enough to see whether the data is what you need before paying anything. ## Paying for it: credit packs Access is **metered per record returned**, at **EUR 0.001 per record**, bought up front as credits. No subscription, no monthly minimum, and **credits never expire**. | Pack | Records | |---|---| | EUR 49.99 | 49,990 | | EUR 99.99 | 99,990 | | EUR 199.99 | 199,990 | | EUR 499.99 | 499,990 | | EUR 999.99 | 999,990 | Buy one at **<https://basketwatchireland.com/pricing>** and you are emailed a key. Put it in `BASKETWATCH_API_KEY` and this server starts using it. **Your credits work here exactly as they do anywhere else.** There is no separate MCP plan, no surcharge and no second balance to keep track of. One record returned costs one credit whether it came from `curl`, your own code, or your assistant calling a tool. Every response reports what it cost and what is left, and `GET /api/credits` shows the balance and ledger for free. Calls that return no rows are free. A question that finds nothing costs nothing. ### Agents can buy their own An autonomous agent can purchase a credit pack itself, with no human, no browser and no card entry, by paying over [MPP](https://mpp.dev) with a Stripe shared payment token. It reads the price at `/api/credits/mpp`, receives a signed payment challenge, pays, and gets back a funded key it can use immediatel…
