Autron

MCP server

Every tool, and what it changes.

42 tools: 24 read your Amazon account and 18 change it. Reading works on every plan; changes need the Agent plan, and the 14 that can spend money or can’t be undone should be confirmed every time.

Server URL

https://agent.autron.ai/api/mcp

Paste it into any assistant that takes a remote MCP server. You’ll sign in with your Autron account.

How to connect

Connecting

How a client signs in

Transport

Streamable HTTP at the server URL above.

Sign-in

OAuth authorization code flow with PKCE (S256 only) and dynamic client registration; clients are public and need no secret. Metadata at /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server.

Scopes

mcp:read for the read tools, on every plan. mcp:tools adds the tools that change an account, on the Agent plan. Anyone can choose read-only when they sign in.

Access tokens last 90 days, refresh tokens a year and rotate on use. Revoke a connection any time in Settings › AI assistants.

Seller

Reference

Changes, errors and limits

How changes behave

  • A change runs once, when it is called. Goals and seeds are the exception: Autron’s ad engine acts on them in its next run.
  • A batch reports each item’s success or failure, and one failure doesn’t stop the rest.
  • Every change to Amazon Ads made through these tools is recorded in the action log with its status: pending, success, partial, failed or rolled back. Read it with query_action_log.
  • An identical call made while the first is still pending is refused with duplicate_request. After a timeout, check the action log before trying again.
  • Archiving is permanent on Amazon. To stop a campaign or target for now, pause it or lower its bid.
  • Every tool carries MCP’s readOnlyHint and destructiveHint, so an assistant can ask before each change. Sensitive writes should be confirmed every time.

Errors

A refused call answers in the tool result, as { "ok": false, "error", "message" }. The message is written to be shown to the person.

  • scope_required — The connection is read-only. Reconnect and allow changes to use this tool.
  • plan_required — Changing an account needs the Agent plan.
  • credits_exhausted — The account has no credits left until its daily allowance refills or more are added.
  • seller_not_found, seller_unresolvable — The seller_id doesn’t match a seller this user can see. Call list_sellers.
  • missing_context — No Amazon Ads account is connected for this seller.
  • invalid_input — An input failed validation; the message names it.
  • product_not_found, marketplace_not_found — A product or marketplace named in the call isn’t on this seller’s account. Look it up again with list_products or list_sellers.
  • duplicate_request — The same call is still in progress.
  • amazon_api_error, auth_error — Amazon refused the request, or the Amazon connection needs reconnecting in Autron.
  • no_seller_db — Analytics for this seller aren’t ready yet; the metrics tools still work.
  • HTTP 401 — the token expired or was revoked; sign in again.

Limits

  • Each call costs one Autron credit, reads included; a refused call costs nothing. The Free plan gets 5 credits a day, up to 30 held.
  • A result is capped at 50,000 characters; long lists come in pages.
  • query_analytics returns up to 1,000 rows, or up to 50,000 as a CSV link that works for 30 days.
  • Batch sizes are on each tool above.
