Instacart

markswendsen-code/mcp-instacart

This is browser automation for Instacart wrapped in an MCP interface. It gives your agent tools to search products, browse stores, add items to cart, place orders with delivery windows, and track shipments. Works by running a persistent Playwright session that keeps you logged in across restarts. You set INSTACART_HEADLESS to false once, log in manually, then the server handles everything headless from there. Built by Strider Labs as part of their action execution toolkit. Useful if you want Claude or another LLM to handle recurring grocery orders or one-off shopping requests without opening the Instacart app yourself.
