Salai MCP Skill
Use Salai's remote MCP server for Israeli grocery discovery, comparison, and cart workflows.
Access requirements
- Salai MCP is currently in beta.
- Users must register to the beta program and be approved.
- Only approved beta users can generate an API key from Salai Profile and use MCP tools.
- Registration: go to
https://app.salai.co.il, create an account (Sign up), and wait for beta approval.
- Beta access contact:
beta@salai.co.il
Connection
- Endpoint:
https://mcp.salai.co.il/mcp
- Auth: send a user API key from Salai Profile using either:
Authorization: Bearer <SALAI_API_KEY>
X-API-Key: <SALAI_API_KEY>
Use the full /mcp endpoint directly for best client compatibility.
Tools
- Discovery:
- Search:
autocomplete_products
search_products
- Pricing and comparison:
get_product_prices
compare_prices
cart_of_israel
- Cart management:
get_cart
get_my_cart
update_cart_items
add_cart_item
remove_cart_item
delete_cart
- Recommendations:
get_complementary_recommendations
Recommended workflow
- Resolve products quickly with
autocomplete_products (method: text first, then semantic if empty).
- Use
search_products for richer semantic results and recommendations.
- Build/modify the active user cart with
get_my_cart, add_cart_item, update_cart_items, and remove_cart_item.
- Compare total cost across retailers with
compare_prices.
- Use
cart_of_israel for one-shot comparison of the default Cart of Israel list.
Store scope conventions
When filtering by store, prefer retailerId + storeId.
subChainId may be accepted by some tools for backward compatibility, but is deprecated for store identity.
Error handling
- If access is denied, instruct the user to complete beta signup and wait for approval.
- If an auth error occurs, request a valid Salai API key and retry.
- If a product is not found in one store, continue comparison with available alternatives.
- For ambiguous product names, call
autocomplete_products before cart mutations.
Security
- Never log or expose API keys in output.
- Treat all API keys as secrets.
