Connect Hoard to Claude
Once Hoard is connected to Claude, you can ask things like “what are my top movers today?” or “tighten my Modern pricing rules” and Claude will look up the answer (or make the change) using your real Hoard data.What you’ll need
- A Hoard Pro subscription
- A Claude account (claude.ai web or the Claude desktop app)
Steps
Open Claude's connector settings
In Claude.ai or the Claude desktop app, open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
Paste the Hoard MCP URL
Paste this URL into the connector field:Give it a name like “Hoard” and click Connect.
Sign in to Hoard
Claude will pop open a Hoard sign-in window. Sign in like you normally would, then click Allow on the consent screen.You’re not pasting an API key — Claude and Hoard handle the handshake via OAuth. The connection is scoped to your account and you can revoke it any time from Settings → Connected apps.
What Claude can do
Claude can use Hoard to:- Look up inventory, prices, and individual cards
- Show top movers, sleepers, and recent sales
- Read pricing rules and propose changes
- Preview a repricing run before you commit it
- Trigger an inventory sync
- Read orders, refunds, and customer data
- Edit a single pricing rule through a preview→confirm→commit flow (with your permission)
When Claude wants to change something
Read-only questions (“what’s my inventory value”, “show me movers”) return data instantly with no extra steps. When Claude wants to change something (today that means editing a pricing rule; more write actions are coming), Hoard puts it through a three-layer safety check before anything commits:- Your permission policy — by default, the assistant must ask before any change. You can loosen this per kind of action in Settings.
- Server-side risk scoring — Hoard classifies the specific change as low/medium/high/critical based on what it would actually do. Default policy auto-commits nothing without an explicit confirmation; you can opt low-risk changes into auto-commit.
- Hard floors — no listed price can ever drop below $0.01 (or your per-card minimum), no single rule edit can drop your total listed inventory value by more than 30%, no chat session can cumulatively drop it by more than 20% in an hour. These are unconditional.
