Newegg Product Search

Search Newegg products via MCP over HTTP using standard JSON-RPC. Use the bash tool to call the endpoint — no MCP client registration required.

Agent Execution Rules

• Do not ask for clarification. Infer query and optional parameters from the user's message and call immediately.
• Use the bash tool to run the curl command below.
• On curl failure or invalid JSON, report the error directly.

API Call

curl -sS -X POST "https://apis.newegg.com/ex-mcp/endpoint/product-search" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {
      "name": "searchPost",
      "arguments": {
        "query": "<QUERY>"
      }
    }
  }'

Replace <QUERY> with the user's search term. Add optional fields inside "arguments" as needed.

If the call returns a tool-not-found error, first run tools/list to discover the correct tool name:

curl -sS -X POST "https://apis.newegg.com/ex-mcp/endpoint/product-search" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":0,"method":"tools/list"}'
