Documentation
Hologrow MCP
The commerce data layer for AI. Connect Amazon, Google Ads, GA4, and other selling systems once. Hologrow keeps the data synced, then MCP lets Claude, Cursor, Codex, ChatGPT, and other agents query it — without CSV exports or one-off API scripts.
Hosted at mcp.hologrow.ai. Console at connector.hologrow.ai. Docs at docs.hologrow.ai.
Why Hologrow?
- Built for the tools you already use: Connect once, then ask questions in Claude, Cursor, Codex, ChatGPT, Doubao, or Hermes
- LLM-ready commerce data: Stable tables for Amazon SP, Amazon Ads, Google Ads, GA4, Search Console, Shoplazza, and Lingxing ERP
- We handle the hard stuff: Platform OAuth, sync, freshness, and schema — agents only read
- Read-only by default: MCP never writes back to ad accounts or storefronts
- Agent ready: Five discovery tools plus analysis skills you can install with one command

Quick Start
1. Create a workspace at connector.hologrow.ai.
2. Connect at least one data source and wait for the first sync.
3. Add Hologrow MCP to your agent. OAuth clients authorize in the UI. Cursor / Claude Code / Hermes use an API key from AI Platforms → Advanced settings.
Creating an API key is not enough. Installation succeeds when the agent can call `list_platforms`.
MCP
Connect any MCP-compatible client. Transport is Streamable HTTP.

ChatGPT web
1. ChatGPT → Settings → Security and login → turn on Developer mode.
2. Sidebar → Plugins → +.
3. Click Sign in with Hologrow and allow access.
ChatGPT desktop / Codex
1. Settings → Plugins → Add MCP server.
2. Name: `Hologrow`. Type: Streamable HTTP. URL: `https://mcp.hologrow.ai/mcp`.
3. Click Authenticate and complete authorization.

1. Settings → Customize → Connectors → Add custom connector.
2. Name: `Hologrow`. Remote MCP server URL: `https://mcp.hologrow.ai/mcp`.
3. Sign in and click Allow access.

1. Skills · Connectors · Partners → New custom connector.
2. Name: `Hologrow`. Transport: HTTP. URL: `https://mcp.hologrow.ai/mcp`. Leave headers empty.
3. Click Authorize and allow access.
Cursor / Claude Code / Hermes (API key)
Copy an API key from the console, then send this prompt to a new Agent conversation. Replace `{apiKey}`. Do not ask the agent to echo the key.
Install the Hologrow MCP server and test the connection.
Connection details:
- Name: Hologrow
- URL: https://mcp.hologrow.ai/mcp
- Transport: Streamable HTTP
- Authentication: API Key
- Header: Authorization: Bearer {apiKey}
Requirements:
1. Add Hologrow using this client's native MCP configuration. Use API Key authentication only; do not use OAuth.
2. Make only the changes required for installation. Keep the API key secret and do not repeat, log, or include it in your response.
3. After installation, call Hologrow's list_platforms tool once. Do not call any other tools.
4. If successful, list the connected data platforms exactly as returned. If installation, authentication, connection, or the tool call fails, stop and explain the error.Verify
Start a new conversation and send:
Use Hologrow’s list_platforms tool to list my connected data platforms. Do not call any other tools.Output:

}
]
},
{
"platform": "google_ads",
"connected": false,
"table_count": 15,
"schemas": []
}

}An empty list still means MCP is installed — the workspace just has no connected source yet.

| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
| `list_platforms` | Discover available data platforms, connection state, and schema names. Call this first. |
| `list_tables` | List queryable tables for an exact platform returned by `list_platforms`. |
| `get_data_dictionary` | Inspect columns, types, keys, and field meanings for 1 to 10 exact table names from `list_tables`. |
| `get_freshness` | Check sync coverage and freshness. `schema_name` comes from `list_platforms`; pass 1 to 50 table names from `list_tables`. |
| `query_db` | Answer a data question with one read-only SQL `SELECT` against `schema_name.table`. |
Always discover names from the tools. Never invent platform, schema, table, or column names. Middleware field names often differ from Amazon / Google UI labels.
list_platforms → list_tables → get_data_dictionary → get_freshness → query_dbIf a tool fails or is cancelled, say so. Never infer zero, no data, or a metric from a missing result.
`list_platforms`
Discover the user's available data platforms, connection state, and schema names. Use during onboarding and whenever the relevant platform or schema is unknown. Returns platform plus `schemas[].schema_name` for later tools and SQL.
list_platforms()`list_tables`
List queryable tables for an exact platform returned by `list_platforms`. Use this to find the tables relevant to the user's question before inspecting fields or writing SQL. Returns exact table names for `get_data_dictionary`, `get_freshness`, and `query_db`; never invent table names.
list_tables({ "platform": "amazon_sp_seller" })Output:
{
"tables": ["order_items", "sales_and_traffic_daily", "fba_inventory_summaries"]
}`get_data_dictionary`
Inspect columns, types, keys, and field meanings for 1 to 10 exact table names returned by `list_tables`. Use before writing SQL. These names may differ from source-platform API or report fields; use only the returned names.
get_data_dictionary({
"platform": "amazon_sp_seller",
"table_names": ["orders", "order_items"]
})`get_freshness`
Check sync coverage and freshness before making time-sensitive conclusions. `schema_name` must come from `list_platforms` `schemas[].schema_name`; provide 1 to 50 exact table names from `list_tables`. Optional `scope` filters by resource identity, for example `{"marketplace_id": "ATVPDKIKX0DER"}`.
get_freshness({
"schema_name": "amazon_sp_seller_xxxxxxxx",
"table_names": ["orders"],
"scope": { "marketplace_id": "ATVPDKIKX0DER" }
})`query_db`
Answer a concrete data question with one read-only SQL `SELECT` after discovering the relevant schema, tables, and columns. Fully qualify every table as `schema_name.table` and use only identifiers returned by `list_platforms`, `list_tables`, and `get_data_dictionary`.
query_db({
"query": "SELECT purchase_date::date AS day, order_status, COUNT(*) AS order_items, SUM(quantity) AS units FROM amazon_sp_seller_.order_items WHERE purchase_date >= CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL '7 days' GROUP BY 1, 2 ORDER BY 1 DESC LIMIT 100",
"max_rows": 100
})Replace `` with `schema_name` from `list_platforms`. `item_price` is the order-line total; divide by `NULLIF(quantity, 0)` only when you need per-unit price. Do not use `_synced_at` as the sales date.
Rules
- Single statement only. No `INSERT` / `UPDATE` / `DELETE` / DDL, no `EXCEPT` or `INTERSECT`, no `public` schema or system catalogs
- Prefer filters, aggregation, and `LIMIT` over `SELECT *`
- Default `max_rows` is 1000
Skills
Advisory, read-only workflows on top of connected Hologrow data. Install `hologrow-data-middleware` first so other skills check coverage and freshness before they interpret performance.

Safety
Hologrow MCP is tenant-scoped and read-only. Use only sources the workspace has authorized. Check freshness before treating a number as current. State the metric definition, attribution window, and comparison period with every important conclusion. Never put API keys into git, skill files, or model replies.
Treat campaign, listing, and budget changes as proposals until a human approves them.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | What to try |
|---|---|
| Cannot find the plugin / connector UI | Confirm client version and permissions. ChatGPT needs Developer mode. Doubao needs the desktop app. |
| OAuth cancelled | Restart authorization. Do not silently switch to an API key. |
| New chat does not see Hologrow | Refresh or restart the client, then retry `list_platforms`. |
| Agent never calls Hologrow | Send the verify message again, naming `list_platforms`. |
| `list_platforms` returns `[]` | MCP works; connect a data source and wait for the first sync. |
| SQL errors on unknown columns | Re-run `get_data_dictionary`. Do not reuse source-platform field names. |
