How to connect: Not in Muse's Connectors list yet, but Muse can still use it. Paste this into Muse: "Use Custom Blinds Shop to help me. It is a free service with an MCP server at https://shop.customblinds.co.za/mcp. It does not need an API key. Ask me before you share anything with it." Muse asks before it shares anything with the app's site. Meta does not review apps used this way, so only use ones you trust. We tested this in the Muse app on September 24, 2026: Muse used an app's link directly this way and returned a live answer.

Tools:
- search_products: Use when the customer hasn't specified a product ID yet. Filters by blind type (roller, venetian, honeycomb, vertical, outdoor), colour name, or maximum window dimensions in mm. Returns product_id, name, description, features, and in-stock colour count. Pass the product_id to get
- get_price: Get an exact ZAR price for a product at specific dimensions. Requires product_id (from search_products or lookup_catalog), width_mm, and height_mm. Returns unit_price_zar and total_price_zar (VAT included). Call configure_product next to lock in colour and mount type before creat
- configure_product: Lock in a full blind specification: product, dimensions, colour, and mount type (inside recess or outside face-fix). Validates that the colour exists and is in stock, then prices the blind. Returns a configuration summary to pass directly into create_cart. Call check_colour_stock
- submit_enquiry: Legacy auth-required tool — prefer the open UCP flow (create_cart → create_checkout → complete_checkout) for credentialless checkout. Use submit_enquiry only when the customer wants a sales team follow-up by email rather than paying online. Requires Bearer token. Pass a configure
- create_order: Legacy auth-required tool — prefer the open UCP flow (create_cart → create_checkout → complete_checkout) which needs no credentials. Use create_order only if you hold a Bearer token and want a single-call path to a payment link. All item prices are re-verified server-side against
- search_catalog: Free-text search across the full catalogue — use for open queries like 'blockout for bedroom' or 'wood venetian'. Returns id, name, category, description, and product_url. For filtering by category, colour, or dimensions use lookup_catalog instead. Pass the returned id to get_pro
- lookup_catalog: Structured catalogue filter: narrow by category (roller | venetian | honeycomb | vertical | outdoor), colour name, max_width_mm, or max_height_mm. Ideal when the customer has stated a blind type. Returns matching products with id and product_url. Use search_catalog for open-ended
- get_product: Fetch complete details for one product by id (e.g. roller-blockout, venetian-25mm-aluwood). Returns all available colours with in-stock status, materials, features, and maximum supported dimensions. Use before configure_product to confirm a colour exists and is in stock before co
- create_cart: Start the open UCP purchase flow — no auth needed. Creates a cart session and returns a cart_id (24-hour TTL). Optionally seed with pre-configured blind items and customer details. Next step: update_cart to add items, then create_checkout → complete_checkout to mint the payment l
- get_cart: Retrieve live cart state by cart_id: full item list, calculated totals in ZAR, and any customer details stored so far. Call after update_cart to confirm changes are correct before proceeding to create_checkout. Cart expires after 24 hours of inactivity.
- update_cart: Modify an open cart before checkout. op: 'add' appends items, 'remove' drops items by 0-based index, 'set' replaces the full item list, 'clear' empties the cart. Merges customer details (name, email, phone) via the customer field. Call get_cart afterwards to confirm. Cannot modif
- cancel_cart: Permanently delete a cart by cart_id. Use when the customer abandons the session or wants to start over. Has no effect on any checkout or paid order already created from this cart. Irreversible — create a new cart to restart.
- create_checkout: Phase 1 of 2 in the purchase flow. Convert a cart (or inline items + customer) into a checkout. Customer name, email, and phone are required. Returns checkout_id. No payment link is minted yet — call complete_checkout for that. Use update_checkout to correct customer details befo
- get_checkout: Poll a checkout by checkout_id. Returns status (pending | paid | cancelled), full item list, customer details, and payment_url if already minted. Use to verify customer details before calling complete_checkout, or to retrieve the payment_url if complete_checkout was already calle
- update_checkout: Correct customer details (name, email, phone, address) or switch payment_method (yoco | ozow) on an unpaid checkout before calling complete_checkout. Returns the updated checkout state. Raises an error if the checkout is already paid or cancelled.
- complete_checkout: Phase 2 of 2. Finalise a checkout and mint the payment link — Yoco for card payments or Ozow for instant EFT. Returns payment_url to share with the customer. Payment confirmation arrives via webhook; poll get_order afterwards to confirm paid status. Once called, the checkout is l
- cancel_checkout: Abort an unpaid checkout and release its checkout_id. Use if the customer changes their mind after create_checkout but before completing payment. Has no effect on orders already confirmed by webhook. To restart, create a new cart and checkout from scratch.

Returns in_stock boolean, expected_restock_date if out of stock, and up to 5 alternative in-stock colours ordered by similarity.
