Store Price Tracker in Cursor

Questions it answers

Ask what an online store sells, what it charges and what changed since the last time anyone looked.

Ask "track competitor prices on allbirds.com", "what did gymshark.com change this week?", "which products on this store are sold out?" or "how has the price of this hoodie moved?".

Store Price Tracker reads the public product feed that Shopify stores publish at /products.json, the same list any visitor's browser can fetch without logging in.

It reports products, prices, variants and availability, and compares each daily snapshot with the one before it: new products, removed products, price changes and stock changes, per variant.

A store you ask about is added to a daily snapshot list, so its price history grows over time and can be read back for any product.

It checks the store's robots.txt first, identifies itself with a clear User-Agent, pauses between requests and backs off when a store asks for fewer.

When comparing stores across borders quoting in different currencies, it normalizes prices using daily foreign exchange reference rates of the European Central Bank (ECB, https://www.ecb.europa.eu), read through the keyless Frankfurter API (https://frankfurter.dev; URL: https://api.frankfurter.dev/v2/providers/ecb/rates; checked 2026-10-02). Data is reused under the ECB Conditions for Reuse of Public Sector Information with attribution.

Stores that are not on Shopify, or that keep their feed private, are reported as unavailable.

It stores only public product data (titles, prices, variants, availability) and the store's address.

Nothing about you is kept: no prompts, no account and no IP address, only a daily count of calls per tool.

Short questions this server answers, each with a direct answer: Track an online store's prices and stock changes.

What it can do

• Lists the products, prices, variants and availability of a Shopify store
• Shows new products, removed products, price changes and stock changes since the previous daily snapshot
• Keeps a daily snapshot of every store it is asked about, so price history builds up
• Reads the price and availability history of one product
• Compares up to five stores in one answer
• Compares store catalogs for price gaps, currency differences, and landed margins

Tools

• check_store_prices, Check a store's products and price changes. Read an online store's products, prices and availability, and what changed since its previous daily snapshot. Use it for questions like "track competitor prices on allbirds.com", "what did gymshark.com change?", "what is new or sold out at this store?". Pass store addresses, up to 5: a bare host such as "allbirds.com", an https link to any page of the store, or a myshopify.com address. Works only for Shopify stores that publish their public product feed (/products.json). Calling it adds the store to a daily snapshot list, so its history builds up. Optional: query (text in a product's title, brand, type or handle), limit. Returns per store a status, the snapshot date, product count, currency, change counts and lists of new, removed, repriced and restocked or sold-out variants, plus matching products. The first snapshot has no changes. Not for one product's history (use get_product_price_history) or for comparing two stores (use compare_store_prices).
• get_product_price_history, Get a product's price history. Read how one product's price and availability moved over the days a store has been tracked. Use it for questions like "how has the price of this hoodie changed?", "when did this product go on sale?", "has this been out of stock?". It is most useful after check_store_prices has tracked the store: history starts on the first snapshot, so a store never read before has one day only. Calling it reads the store when there is no snapshot for today and adds it to the daily snapshot list. Pass the store's address and the product's link, handle or title; an exact handle or title wins over part of a title. Returns per variant the price, the compare-at (was) price and availability on each day something changed. Status ambiguous returns candidates: ask the user to pick one, then call again with that title. Not for a whole store's changes (use check_store_prices) or for comparing stores (use compare_store_prices).
• compare_store_prices, Compare prices and find gaps across stores. Compare product prices between two online stores to find price gaps and margin differences. Use it for questions like "compare prices between allbirds.com and allbirds.co.uk" or "which store sells this item cheaper?". Pass source_store (the benchmark) and target_store addresses. Products are paired by title by default; use match_by "handle" for two regional stores of one brand. Other currencies are converted into the target currency with the latest ECB reference rate unless fx_rate is given. Returns matched pairs with both prices, the gap and percent spread (positive when the target store is dearer), stock, links and the landed gap: the gap left after the shipping and duty allowances per item. Status no_matches means no product paired: try another match_by, a shorter query or a lower min_gap_pct. It adds both stores to the daily snapshot list. Not for one store's changes (use check_store_prices) or one product's history (use get_product_price_history).

Add Store Price Tracker in Cursor

Cursor reads MCP servers from mcp.json. A project file at .cursor/mcp.json applies to that project. A user file at ~/.cursor/mcp.json applies everywhere. These steps were checked against the Cursor MCP docs on 2026-10-01. Streamable HTTP is the transport: a url, not a shell command.

Create or edit the file so it contains this server. Merge it with servers you already have. Do not replace the whole file if other servers are listed.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "store-prices": {
      "url": "https://stores.openkrill.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}

No headers and no auth block. Those are for servers that require a token or a pre-registered OAuth client. Store Price Tracker answers without either. Saving the file is the install. Open Cursor Settings, then MCP, and confirm Store Price Tracker is enabled. If it stays disconnected, reload the window. You should see check_store_prices, get_product_price_history, compare_store_prices.

In Agent chat, ask: Track competitor prices on allbirds.com Cursor calls the tool over streamable HTTP and shows the arguments before it runs them, depending on your run mode. Approve the call the first time and read the result. The server is public and read-only. It does not see your repository unless the model puts repository text into the arguments, so do not paste secrets into the question.

A one-click Marketplace install does not exist for this server. The JSON above is the whole setup. Team admins can distribute the same url through a team marketplace, but that is an admin step, not something this page can do for you. OAuth redirect URLs in the Cursor docs matter only for servers that require sign-in. Skip them here.
