Can I use ShipBob as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a ShipBob CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose ShipBob through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected ShipBob tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are ShipBob credentials stored?

ShipBob credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for ShipBob MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Connect ShipBob to Generic MCP Clients

Connect any stdio-compatible MCP client to local KosmoKrator integration tools.

Register kosmo mcp:serve as the command for a local stdio MCP server. The gateway is local, scoped to this integration, and starts with --write=deny so MCP clients can inspect read-capable tools without receiving write access by default.
