Instacart

No. It builds a cart and hands it back to you. Instacart states that any cart you build stays in sync with your account so you can pick up where you left off in the app or on the website whenever you are ready to order. A hands-on test found Claude supplied a link that opened the Instacart cart, where the reviewer completed the purchase.

Anthropic's directory lists two, named cart and search_products. Instacart publishes no tool list of its own anywhere in its MCP documentation, so there is no second enumeration to check the two against. The endpoint requires OAuth, so we could not read the live list either. Treat two as the directory's count rather than a verified total.

One scope, connect:fig_mcp, which the server advertised in its own RFC 9728 descriptor on 2026-08-22. It names the connector rather than any action, so there is no way to grant product search without also granting cart modification. Instacart's directory entry summarises the permission as read and write.

Almost certainly it multiplexes, and the tool name alone cannot tell you which operations. Instacart's documentation says the server can add, swap, or remove products and track the current order state, which is four behaviours behind one noun-shaped name. We could not read the schema because the endpoint is gated, so the enum is unverified.

There are two, and they are unrelated. The connector in Anthropic's directory is fig-mcp.instacart.com, OAuth-gated, for grocery carts. Instacart's Developer Platform runs a separate API-key server at mcp.instacart.com whose tools create recipe and shopping-list pages. Our anonymous handshake on 2026-08-22 identified the latter as InstacartRecipeServer.

Not without Instacart provisioning you. Its documentation says to contact your Instacart representative for onboarding, access provisioning, and your MCP endpoint URL. The authorization server published no registration endpoint on 2026-08-22, so a client cannot register itself. The consumer connector is reached through Claude's directory instead.

The United States only. Instacart states the Claude integration is available on mobile and web for users in the U.S., and the account linking prompt appears when you start a grocery conversation. Instacart's marketplace serves North America, so store availability, inventory and delivery are all tied to a US address.

Your Instacart account's personalised shopping context. Instacart says Claude surfaces personalised results from your account and live inventory from nearby stores, which implies your location and buying history shape what comes back. Anthropic states connector data is not used to train its models and that the app cannot see your other conversations.
