Manage Your Shipping Through ShipStation

Through an AnythingMCP custom connector, your muse can run the shipping side of a ShipStation account in plain words: check orders waiting to go out, compare carrier rates, and track parcels.

What it does

ShipStation is a service shops use to ship orders through many carriers from one place. The connector adds 28 tools. The muse can list your carrier accounts and their services and package types, list orders with status, items, and store, get rates already worked out for an order, or price a parcel from its origin, weight, and size. It can list labels you have bought, track a label or any parcel by carrier and tracking number, check a postal address, and read warehouses, products, stock, fulfillments, label batches, manifests, and pickups. The tools that buy a label or void one are switched off at install, because a bought label is charged to the carrier account at once.

How to use it

1. Start an AnythingMCP account and add the ShipStation connector.
2. In ShipStation, open Settings, then Account, then API Settings, and generate a V2 API key. Enter it only where the connector asks.
3. In Muse, open Settings, then Connectors, and add a custom connector with the MCP server address AnythingMCP gives you. Sign in and approve.
4. Check the setup by asking the muse to list your carriers, then to list the orders still waiting to ship, and compare both with ShipStation itself.
5. Ask in plain words, for example to price one order across your carriers or to track a parcel, and review any label purchase carefully before you switch that tool on and approve it.

What you need

• A Muse account that can add custom connectors
• An AnythingMCP account with the ShipStation connector added
• A ShipStation account on a plan that includes API access, and a V2 API key

What to watch for

• Only a V2 key works. The older V1 key and secret do not, and only one V2 key is active at a time, so generating a new one revokes the old one everywhere it was used.
• In this connector an order is called a shipment, and a shipment in the ShipStation app is a label. If a list looks odd, check which word the answer is using before you act on it.
• The account allows 200 requests a minute. A large sweep can hit that limit and need a short wait.
• This is a custom connector, and Meta does not review custom connectors. You can disconnect it in Settings at any time. The muse prepares, you decide.
