Send247 Delivery MCP Server

The Send247 Delivery MCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that allows AI assistants to quote and book UK deliveries through a structured, safe, and auditable interface.

It is designed for ChatGPT, Claude, GitHub Copilot, and other MCP-compatible clients.

What This App Does

The MCP server exposes delivery functionality as tools that an AI assistant can safely invoke:

• Get real-time delivery quotes between UK addresses
• Create (book) a delivery using a previously generated quote
• Enforce confirmation before any irreversible action
• Maintain server-side state so LLM session continuity is not required

This app is intended for end users located in the United Kingdom.

Available Tools

get_delivery_quote

Returns delivery options and prices for a shipment.

Typical use

• User wants to know delivery cost
• User compares services before booking

Key properties

• Not read-only (stateful quote caching)
• Open world (uses external delivery providers)
• Non-destructive

create_delivery

Creates a delivery booking using a previously issued quote.

Typical use

• User explicitly confirms they want to book a delivery

Key properties

• Writes data
• Open world
• Destructive (creates irreversible delivery bookings)

This tool must only be invoked after explicit user confirmation.

Optional: MCP Manifest (Discoverability)

For platforms or registries that support MCP manifests, you may include the following file:

mcp.json

{
  "name": "Send247 Delivery",
  "description": "UK delivery quotes and booking via the Model Context Protocol",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "endpoint": "https://mcp.send247.uk/api/v1/mcp",
  "capabilities": {
    "tools": true
  }
}

This is optional but improves discoverability.

Safety & Design Guarantees

• No deliveries are created without explicit confirmation
• Quotes expire automatically
• Tool schemas are strictly validated
• Server-side state ensures reliability across LLM sessions
• All write actions are auditable

Intended Use

This MCP server is intended for:

• AI assistants offering delivery services
• Agentic workflows that require logistics actions
• End users in the United Kingdom

It is not a general logistics SDK and does not expose raw provider APIs.

Status

• MCP server deployed and publicly accessible
• Tested with MCP Inspector and ChatGPT developer mode
• Submitted for review in the OpenAI Apps Directory

MCP Client Configuration

This MCP server is publicly accessible and can be connected to by any MCP-compatible client.

Authentication and request validation are handled at the gateway level. No client-side API keys are required.

ChatGPT / OpenAI MCP Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "send247-delivery": {
      "url": "https://mcp.send247.uk/api/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Once connected, enable the app in a conversation and prompt normally (for example: “Get a delivery quote from London to Manchester”).

Claude MCP Configuration (Anthropic)

Claude Desktop & Claude Code

Claude runs MCP servers locally and does not yet support direct remote MCP URLs. To connect Claude to send247, we use the official MCP remote bridge (@modelcontextprotocol/remote), which proxies the remote MCP server over stdio.

1. Install MCP Remote: npm install -g @modelcontextprotocol/remote

2. Add the following to your MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "send247-delivery": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "@modelcontextprotocol/remote",
        "https://mcp.send247.uk/api/v1/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude will automatically discover available tools via tools/list.

GitHub Copilot (VS Code) MCP Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "send247-delivery": {
      "url": "https://mcp.send247.uk/api/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

When using Copilot Chat, tools will appear when delivery-related prompts are detected.
