ubereats_add_to_cart
Add a menu item to the cart. The restaurant must be loaded first via ubereats_get_restaurant. Supports quantity and special instructions.
LABSCO SUMMARY
There is a strict order to it and the tools say so: session, then address, then restaurant, then cart — each step refuses without the one before it.
ubereats_status is described as the call to make before any other operation, ubereats_set_address must be set before searching for restaurants, and ubereats_add_to_cart requires the restaurant to have been loaded through ubereats_get_restaurant first. That sequencing is what makes the server usable by an agent at all, because each precondition surfaces as a refusal rather than as an empty result that reads like a genuine answer. Checkout keeps the same discipline: confirm defaults to false and returns the summary with fees and estimated delivery, with the description telling you to always preview before placing.
What it is
An Uber Eats client with 11 tools covering session status and login, the delivery address, restaurant search and menus, cart building, checkout behind a preview, and order tracking.
What you get
- Session before anything else: ubereats_status reports login status with setup instructions and is described as the call to always make first, ubereats_login returns the login URL for the user to open, and ubereats_logout clears the stored cookies to reset or switch accounts.
- Address before search: ubereats_set_address takes a full street address including city and zip code, and must be set before searching for restaurants.
- Finding food: ubereats_search matches by restaurant name, food type or cuisine and returns delivery info, and ubereats_get_restaurant returns rating, delivery time, fees and the complete menu organised by category.
- Cart building against a loaded menu: ubereats_add_to_cart takes an item name with quantity and special instructions and requires the restaurant to have been loaded first, ubereats_view_cart shows items, quantities, prices and the total with the delivery fee, and ubereats_clear_cart empties it to start over or switch restaurants.
- Ordering behind a preview: ubereats_checkout defaults to confirm=false and returns the order summary with items, fees and estimated delivery, placing the order only when confirm=true, and ubereats_track_order returns status, estimated delivery time, driver information where available and the order details.
Requirements
An Uber Eats account the user logs into through the returned URL, and a delivery address set through ubereats_set_address before any search will work. No credentials are configured on the server itself.
Setup effort
One command — npx -y @striderlabs/mcp-ubereats
USE CASES
01
Ordering dinner to an address the account has not used before
Confirm the session, set the delivery address, search and load the restaurant so its menu is available, add the items, then preview the order before confirming it.
02
Checking what an order will actually cost once fees land
Read the cart with its prices and total including delivery, then take the checkout preview for the full breakdown before committing.
03
Starting over after changing your mind about the restaurant
Empty the cart so the previous restaurant's items do not linger, and search again from the same address.
04
Finding out where an order has got to
Track the active order for its status, estimated delivery and driver details rather than refreshing the app.
