Merchant Context MCP server

Merchant Context is an MCP server with 9 tools an agent can call, among them check_merchant, compare_offers, get_safe_actions. It answers at https://api.merchant.atomandbits.com/mcp over streamable HTTP, and it listed its tools to an anonymous client, so no sign-in was needed for that. Our probes reached it 6 of 6 times since 11 September 2026; the last check, on 22 October 2026, succeeded.

Inputs: merchant_url, client_id, action_type, allowed_authority, human_confirmation_available

Inputs: merchant_url, client_id, item_or_service, action_type, geography, maximum_price_amount
refresh_merchantPay for a fresh merchant inspection and cache refresh. Show the price and get explicit human approval first.
