## What do you want Commerce Layer and Ashby to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

###

### Can it also run from Ashby to Commerce Layer?

Ashby has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Commerce Layer. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Ashby's API documentation and adds it.

###

###

###

### What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

###
