How do I connect Biteship?

Before you connect

The login page asks for your Biteship API key.

Create a key in the Biteship dashboard: Integrations > Pengaturan > Tambah Kunci API. Keys start with biteship_live., or biteship_test. for the sandbox. Order tools need the Biteship Order API active for your key. The key is used only to call the API on your behalf and to derive a private account id.

Claude Code

Run this command, then run /mcp in Claude Code to log in:

claude mcp add --transport http biteship https://biteship.usefulapi.io/mcp

Cursor

Add to Cursor or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "biteship": {
      "url": "https://biteship.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to VS Code or add this to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "biteship": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://biteship.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Codex

Run these commands. The second one opens the login page:

codex mcp add biteship --url https://biteship.usefulapi.io/mcp
codex mcp login biteship

Other clients

Windsurf, Cline, Zed and other MCP clients: add this URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). The client then opens the login page in your browser.

https://biteship.usefulapi.io/mcp

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Biteship API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

Your usefulapi plan · 4

  • Usage status (free-tier meter)biteship_usage_status
    Report the caller's current usage: the plan, calls used this month, the limit of the plan (the free monthly cap or the Pro fair use limit), remaining, and whether the limit is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
  • Request a missing featurebiteship_request_feature
    Tell usefulapi that the user needs something the Biteship tools cannot do yet (a missing tool, field or filter). Call it only when the user asks for something none of the tools can do, and tell the user that you send the request. Do not call it for errors or for normal requests. Do not include personal data, credentials or customer records. Stored with the product name and the client type (for example Claude or Cursor), without the user's account. At most 5 requests per day. Does not count against the meter.
  • Upgrade to Pro or Pro+biteship_upgrade
    Get a paid plan for Biteship (the free tier caps monthly usage). Pro: 10,000 tool calls a month, for normal use — plan "monthly" ($9/month) or "yearly" ($90/year, 2 months free). Pro+: 100,000 tool calls a month, for automations and heavy use — plan "plus" ($39/month) or "plus_yearly" ($390/year). Without a plan it returns both Pro and Pro+, each with a payment link, for the user to choose; with a plan, one link. An existing Pro subscription changes to Pro+ in place (needs confirm: true; the price difference for the rest of the period is charged at once). Cancel any time: the plan then runs to the end of the paid period, so it also suits a one-time job. A link opens Stripe Checkout in the browser; after payment the account upgrades automatically. Does not count against the meter.
  • Cancel the Pro subscriptionbiteship_cancel_subscription
    Cancel the caller's Biteship Pro subscription at the end of the paid period (no refund for the current period; Pro continues until then, then the free tier applies). Requires confirm: true. Run biteship_upgrade later to undo the cancel before the period ends. Does not count against the meter.

FAQ

What can I do with Biteship in Claude or ChatGPT?

Compare courier rates for a route. List the courier services before a booking. Book a courier pickup after approval. Track a parcel and read its order. Cancel an order when the user asks. See what you can do for the details.

Is this an official Biteship product?

No. usefulapi is an independent service. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Biteship. The server calls the Biteship API with your own Biteship access, so it sees only the data that your account can see.

Can I connect Biteship to Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. In Claude, add this server's URL as a custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a custom MCP server in Plugins. Then log in once. Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code and Codex work too. See the setup steps.

What do I need to connect?

The login page asks for your Biteship API key. See Before you connect for where to find it.

Do I put my Biteship key or an Authorization header in the client config?

No. Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config. The server signs you in with OAuth: the login page asks for your Biteship API key. If the config has such a header, remove it: some clients then send that header instead of the login token, and every call fails with 401.

How do you keep my Biteship credentials?

The login stores them encrypted in the authorization grant of your connection. The server uses them to call the Biteship API for you and to derive a private account id for usage metering. usefulapi does not show them on any page or in any reply. To stop all access, remove the connector and change or delete these credentials in Biteship.

Can the AI change my Biteship data?

Yes, if you approve it. 2 of the 8 Biteship tools can create or change data. The other 6 are marked read-only. Most MCP clients ask you to approve a tool call before it runs.

What does it cost?

The Free plan gives 50 tool calls / month. Pro costs $9/mo or $90/yr, with unlimited tool calls (fair use limit: 10,000 tool calls a month), for this Biteship server only. Cancel any time: Pro then runs to the end of the paid period. Run biteship_usage_status to see how many calls you used.

How do I subscribe or cancel?

Ask the AI to run biteship_upgrade: it returns a Stripe Checkout link. To cancel, run biteship_cancel_subscription. Pro continues to the end of the paid period.

What if a Biteship tool that I need is missing?

Tell the AI what you wanted to do. It can send the request with biteship_request_feature. We store the text with the server name, the type of AI client and the tool you tried, not with your account, and read every request when we plan new tools. You can send up to 5 requests per day.

Which AI clients can I use?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers (Streamable HTTP) with OAuth login: Claude (web and desktop), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and others.

This is a Model Context Protocol endpoint — meant to be connected from an AI client, not opened in a browser. An invalid_token response at the URL is the auth gate working as designed; clients authenticate automatically.
