# Build your shop by talking to Claude

> Describe your online shop to Claude. CG Shop Builder makes a draft and gives you a link to check it on CG Shops. Find it in Claude's directory.

You can describe your shop to Claude and get a ready draft. CG Shop Builder helps you do it. It is a connector between Claude and CG Shops.

Example Maria knits scarves in Porto. One evening she writes to Claude: "I want an online shop for hand-knitted scarves." Claude asks what else it needs. Then it gives her a link to the draft.

## What it does

- **Drafts an online shop.** From what you tell it: what you sell, to whom, in which country and currency. The shop can be in Bulgarian or in English.
- **Gives you a link.** There you check the draft on CG Shops. Nothing is built until you submit the form there.
- **Tells you how far your shop has got.** Ask it "How is my shop doing?" and it checks.

Want a website without a shop? Use [CG Site Builder](https://www.cgshops.com/en/claude-site-connector).

Good to know: nothing is paid in the chat. Claude never asks for a card. You type your name and email only on the CG Shops page.

## How to add it to Claude

CG Shop Builder is listed in Claude's Connectors Directory as a community connector, since 7 November 2026. Anthropic reviewed it before listing it. You add it in a few clicks.

1. Open claude.ai. Go to "Customize", then "Connectors".
2. Browse the directory, or search for **CG Shop Builder**.
3. Click "Connect". No sign-in is needed. You need no account with us.
4. In a new chat, click "+", then "Connectors", and turn it on.

You can also open its page in the directory: [CG Shop Builder in Claude](https://claude.ai/directory/connectors/cg-shop-builder).

In a team (Team or Enterprise), the account owner adds it. They do it in "Organization settings", "Connectors". Then every member can use it.

### Another way: as a custom connector

If you do not see it in the directory yet, add it yourself as a custom connector. It takes a minute. You need a paid Claude plan.

1. Open claude.ai. Go to "Settings", "Customize", then "Connectors".
2. Click "Add", then "Add custom connector".
3. Name: **CG Shop Builder**. URL: **https://manager.cgshops.com/api/v1/mcp**
4. Leave sign-in off (no authentication). Click "Add".
5. In a new chat, click "+", then "Connectors", and turn it on.

In Claude Code, you add it with one command. It is at the end of this page.

Before it makes a draft, Claude asks you. Allow it, and the draft is ready in seconds.

## The two tools

- **Create a new shop** (create\_shop). Makes a draft of your shop and gives you the link. It writes, so Claude asks you first. It only adds a draft, it changes and deletes nothing.
- **Check my shop** (get\_shop\_status). Says how far your shop has got. It only reads.

## What to start with

Write to Claude, for example:

- "I sell handmade candles. Make me an online shop. Bulgaria, euro."
- "Make a shop for my ceramics. Products: mug 18 euro, tea bowl 22 euro, vase 48 euro."
- "I roast coffee in Plovdiv. I need an online shop in English for customers abroad."
- "I make jewellery. Make me a sample shop that I can change later."
- "How is the shop we made yesterday doing?"

The more you tell it, the closer the draft gets. You can change everything later.

## Limits

- About 10 drafts an hour from one address. After that, wait about an hour.
- The shop is built only after you submit the form on the link.

## If something does not work

- **Claude does not see the connector.** Check that it is on in this chat, under "+" and "Connectors".
- **The link has expired.** Ask Claude for a new draft.
- **"Too many requests".** Wait about an hour and try again.
- **The shop is not ready.** It is built after you submit the form on the link. Then an email arrives.

## What data we receive

- Only what Claude sends to the tools: the shop's description and the details you choose to give, like name, country, currency and products.
- The request's number, so we can tell you how far it has got.
- A hash (SHA-256) of the IP address the request comes from. We keep it for about an hour, to limit the number of requests.

We do not get your chat history, Claude's memory or your files. We do not see your conversation with Claude. Anthropic is responsible for it.
