Connect SitesPlaced to ChatGPT or Claude (MCP)

SitesPlaced now speaks MCP (Model Context Protocol) — the open standard AI assistants use to work with other apps. Connect it once, and ChatGPT or Claude can create, edit and publish your SitesPlaced websites and online stores for you, right from the chat.

What your assistant can do

• Build a whole site from a brief — "make me a portfolio for a freelance photographer" becomes a real, live site.
• Create an online store with products — name, copy, storefront theme and the first products in one go.
• Edit what's already there — rewrite your hero, update your about section, change your theme.
• Manage your catalog — add products, update prices and stock, run through your whole store.
• Publish or unpublish — with the same plan rules as the dashboard.

Connect from ChatGPT

1. 1Open ChatGPT Settings → Apps & Connectors.
2. 2Turn on Developer mode (needed for custom connectors).
3. 3Choose Create connector and paste https://sitesplaced.com/api/mcp.
4. 4ChatGPT opens a SitesPlaced sign-in — log in and approve access.
5. 5Done. Start a chat and say something like *"List my SitesPlaced sites"* to check it's working.

Connect from Claude (claude.ai)

1. 1Open Claude Settings → Connectors.
2. 2Choose Add custom connector and paste https://sitesplaced.com/api/mcp.
3. 3Claude opens a SitesPlaced sign-in — log in and approve access.
4. 4In any chat, enable the SitesPlaced connector and start building.

Connect from Claude Code or Cursor

• Claude Code — run claude mcp add --transport http sitesplaced https://sitesplaced.com/api/mcp, then /mcp to sign in.
• Cursor — add { "mcpServers": { "sitesplaced": { "url": "https://sitesplaced.com/api/mcp" } } } to .cursor/mcp.json.

Things to try

• "Build me a portfolio website for a freelance photographer and publish it."
• "Create an online store for my bakery with these 5 products."
• "Rewrite my site's hero section to sound more premium."
• "Add a 20% off sale price to every product in my store."

Safety & what it can't touch

• The connector only sees and edits sites owned by the account you sign in with.
• Billing, plan changes, custom domains, tracking scripts and customer/order data are not accessible through MCP.
• Publishing follows the same plan rules as the dashboard — if an upgrade is needed, your assistant is given a pricing link instead.
• Destructive actions (deleting a site or product) always require your explicit confirmation.
