Why Canuckeats for Agents?

Canadian residents who want AI assistants to handle their food delivery face a gap: UberEats and DoorDash don't offer agent-accessible APIs. Canuckeats bridges that gap. An agent given a task like "order me sushi for dinner" can:

1. Find open restaurants near the user's address in their city
2. Browse full menus with prices and modifier options
3. Get a precise cost breakdown before charging anything
4. Place the order and confirm payment in a single tool call
5. Track delivery status and report the ETA back to the user

Every order dispatches through real UberEats or DoorDash accounts — the same food, same drivers, same cities.

Quickstart: Connect in 60 Seconds

Python (using mcp SDK)

import asyncio, json
from mcp import ClientSession
from mcp.client.streamable_http import streamablehttp_client

async def main():
    async with streamablehttp_client(
        "https://mcp.canuckeats.com/mcp",
        headers={"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"}
    ) as (read, write, _):
        async with ClientSession(read, write) as session:
            await session.initialize()

            # Find restaurants
            result = await session.call_tool("search_restaurants", {
                "city_slug": "vancouver-bc",
                "query": "sushi",
                "limit": 5
            })
            restaurants = json.loads(result.content[0].text)
            print(f"Found {restaurants['total']} sushi spots in Vancouver")

asyncio.run(main())

TypeScript / Node.js

import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js"
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js"

const client = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0" }, { capabilities: {} })
await client.connect(new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://mcp.canuckeats.com/mcp"),
  { requestInit: { headers: { Authorization: "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" } } }
))

const result = await client.callTool({ name: "list_cities", arguments: {} })
const cities = JSON.parse(result.content[0].text)
console.log(`${cities.length} cities available`)

Claude Desktop Integration

Add to your Claude Desktop MCP config (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "canuckeats": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://mcp.canuckeats.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Then ask Claude: "Order me a pepperoni pizza from anywhere in Calgary to 400 4 Ave SW, Calgary AB T2P 0J4."

Complete Order Flow

list_cities                  →  get city slug (e.g. "calgary-ab")
  ↓
search_restaurants           →  get restaurant id
  ↓
get_menu                     →  get menu_item_id + modifier options
  ↓
validate_order               →  confirm total (no charge)
  ↓
create_order                 →  get order_id + stripe_payment_intent_id
  ↓
confirm_payment              →  charge pm_... and dispatch
  ↓
get_order_status (poll)      →  track until delivered

See docs/examples/order-flow.md for a narrated walkthrough with real request/response examples.

Key Facts for Agents

• Canadian addresses only. Province must be a two-letter code: AB, BC, ON, QC, MB, SK, NS, NB, NL, PE, NT, YT, NU.
• Payment method: confirm_payment accepts a Stripe pm_* payment method ID. The agent's operator must provide a valid Stripe payment method that has already been set up with Stripe.
• Order dispatch is automatic. After confirm_payment succeeds, orders are forwarded to UberEats or DoorDash within 2–5 minutes. Use get_order_status to track.
• Delivery platform is chosen automatically based on which platform has that restaurant in its catalog.
• source_id on menu items is used internally — you do not need to reference it directly. Just use menu_item_id (the integer id field) when calling create_order.
• Modifiers are optional. If a menu item has required modifiers (e.g. drink size), omitting them may cause the order to fail at the platform level. Check modifier_groups[].min_selections to know which are required.
• Scheduled delivery is supported via the scheduled_for ISO 8601 field on create_order. Use ASAP delivery by omitting this field.

Supported Delivery Platforms

Platform	Coverage
UberEats	All 89 cities
DoorDash	All 89 cities

Orders are placed on whichever platform has the requested restaurant. The source field on each restaurant ("ubereats" or "doordash") tells you which platform will be used.
