Grok Beacon - verified-merchant index for AI shopping agents verify_capability

Add Beacon - verified-merchant index for AI shopping agents to Grok

1. 01

   Open .mcp.json (in your project root) and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "beacon": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://beacon-index.onrender.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

2. 02

   Save the file and restart Grok.

3. 03

   Ask for something verify_capability does. Grok lists the server's tools on connect and calls verify_capability itself — you do not invoke it by name.

4. 04

   If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Beacon - verified-merchant index for AI shopping agents's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Grok Build reads Claude Code's .mcp.json and Claude Desktop's config unchanged, so a server you have already set up there needs nothing new. The Grok web app and X integration do not take custom servers. Grok docs
