ShipHero MCP server for AI agents.

actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to ShipHero and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 203 ShipHero actions (72 reads, 99 writes and 32 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the ShipHero credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces ShipHero's limits and records every call.

Set up

Connect ShipHero in three steps.

01
Add actionlake to Claude.
Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us.

Make the first call. Check before a write.

Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, check validates the call and prices it, for free.

Top actions

The ShipHero API, shaped for agents.

The ids your agent types, what each does, and the one name it shares with other systems. 33 of ShipHero's 33 action names are shared with at least one other connector, so an agent learns them once.

Governance for ShipHero

Destructive actions wait for a yes.

32 ShipHero actions are destructive. The first 10:

Product deleteshiphero.products.delete
Order cancelshiphero.orders.cancel
Bill deleteshiphero.bills.delete
Webhook deleteshiphero.webhooks.delete
Purchase order cancelshiphero.purchase_orders.cancel
Inventory transfershiphero.inventory.transfer
Bill add ad hoc chargeshiphero.bills.add_ad_hoc_charge
Tote transfer to locationshiphero.totes.transfer_to_location
Wholesale order transfer picks to stagingshiphero.wholesale_orders.transfer_picks_to_staging
Kit clearshiphero.kits.clear

A destructive action runs only with confirm: true. Under the human policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after.

Cost

What ShipHero costs on actionlake.

Every ShipHero action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, check, cost, account and any call ShipHero refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

Questions

The ShipHero MCP server, answered.

Is there a ShipHero MCP server for Claude?

Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 203 ShipHero actions, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by ShipHero.

What do I need to connect ShipHero?

ShipHero refresh token. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "shiphero" } lists exactly what to paste.

Can an AI agent delete or change things in ShipHero?

Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 32 ShipHero actions are destructive, including product delete, order cancel and bill delete. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it.

Will an AI agent use up my ShipHero API limit?

actionlake paces every call to the limits in the ShipHero service file: 7,000 calls per 5 minutes per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (72 ShipHero actions can be), which never reaches ShipHero.

What does a ShipHero action cost?

One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (41 ShipHero actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls ShipHero refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000.

Which ShipHero API does it cover?

The ShipHero (warehouse management, fulfillment and 3PL) API 2026-10 at public-api.shiphero.com. It is built from ShipHero's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 203 actions in 1 area, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0).

Does actionlake keep my ShipHero data, and where?

actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to an hour, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your ShipHero credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models.

Which AI clients can use it?

Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names.
