# Connect Cursor or Claude Code to Section Store

> Add Section Store to Cursor with one click, or to Claude Code with a terminal command, then approve the connection in your Shopify admin.

Cursor and Claude Code can build and change your bundles and cart drawer. On the **AI assistants** page, pick your assistant's tab, follow its 3 steps, then approve the connection in your Shopify admin.

## Before you start

- Section Store must be installed on your store.
- Assistants build bundles and carts on any plan. Switching them on needs Section Store Plus.

## Open the AI assistants page

1. In Shopify admin, open **Apps** → **Section Store**.
2. Find **Build with AI** on **Home**, at the top of **Cart Drawer**, or below your deals on **Bundles**.
3. Click **ChatGPT**. The **AI assistants** page opens. It serves every assistant, not only ChatGPT. If an assistant is already connected, click **Manage** instead.

## Connect Cursor

1. Pick the **Cursor** tab, then click **Add to Cursor** and confirm in Cursor.

2. In Cursor, open **Settings › Tools & MCP** and click **Connect** next to **section-store**.
3. Enter **Your store** (your myshopify address, admin URL or store domain) and click **Continue**.
4. In Section Store, review what Cursor can do, then click **Connect Cursor**.

## Connect Claude Code

1. Pick the **Claude Code** tab and click **Copy** next to **Run this in your terminal**. You see **Command copied**.

2. Run the command in your terminal. It looks like `claude mcp add --transport http section-store https://mcp.section.store/mcp`.
3. In Claude Code, type **/mcp**, pick **section-store** and choose **Authenticate**.
4. Enter **Your store** and click **Continue**, then click **Connect Claude Code** in Section Store.

Stay in the same browser for the sign-in and approval, and finish within 15 minutes.

## Connect another app

Pick the **Other apps** tab, click **Copy** next to **Server URL**, and add a remote MCP server with that URL in your app. Sign in with OAuth if asked.

## Good to know

- After you connect, the assistant appears under **Connected assistants**. To end a connection, click **Disconnect**.
- A Cursor connection can be listed as **Cursor or Grok Bot**. Cursor's cloud agents and Grok Bot share one address, so we can't tell them apart.
- During approval you may read **Next you go back to 127.0.0.1** with Claude Code, or **cursor://** with Cursor. Both are normal.
- The **Claude** button on the **Build with AI** line opens Claude's directory, not this page.
- Nothing connects until you approve it in your Shopify admin.

## If it doesn't work

- **The app asks for a token or API key:** it doesn't support OAuth sign-in for this server. There is no key to paste. Use an app that supports it.
- **"The assistant sent a sign-in request we can't use":** remove **section-store** from your app and add it again.
