Let your AI agent shop at nemlig.com, BilkaToGo and REMA 1000.
An MCP server for Claude, Grok or Codex. It reads the offers, plans the week on your budget and fills the cheapest cart. You pay.

Install → · handlemcp.dk

Example from the demo: the agent compares nemlig.com (693 kr), REMA 1000 (712 kr) and BilkaToGo (741 kr) and fills the cheapest cart; nothing is ordered. Prices are examples

It can never order or pay. You do. That code does not exist, and a test fails if it shows up (why).

It counts anonymous usage, and tells you so. No id, no personal data. Off with HANDLE_TELEMETRY=0. Exactly what is sent.

How it works

  1. Plan. Give your agent a budget. It reads this week's offers and the recipes, and plans the meals around them.
  2. Compare. It prices the whole list in every store: pack sizes, offers, delivery fee and minimum order.
  3. Fill. It fills the cheapest store's cart with your login. Only the cart. (At REMA 1000: your shopping list "handle-mcp".)
  4. Pay. You open the store, check the cart, pick a delivery or pickup time and pay.

Taste, budget and meal rules live in your own prompt or skill. The server finds and counts. Build your own skill.

Requirements

  • macOS, Linux or Windows (x64). Windows on ARM is not supported yet: a dependency (cryptography) has no ready-made build for it.
  • uv. It fetches Python 3.12+ if you do not have it.
  • An MCP client, Grok, Claude Code, Claude Desktop or Codex etc.
  • An account at nemlig.com or BilkaToGo with home delivery to your address, or at REMA 1000 (Køb & Hent or shopping in the store yourself).

Install

uvx handle-mcp@latest login nemlig
claude mcp add handle -- uvx handle-mcp@latest

@latest runs the newest release at each start. To choose when to update, use a version instead, e.g. handle-mcp@1.5.2 (more).

Then ask:

  • "We have 4,000 kr a month for food. Plan this week's meals." It asks who eats, what you like and which store, then plans on this week's offers and fills the cheapest cart after your yes.
  • "What is on offer this week? Any free gifts?"
  • "Which delivery times are cheapest tomorrow?"

Other stores, Claude Desktop, headless machines and AI agents (--from-env): setup. nemlig's offers and REMA 1000's search work with no login. No terminal? Join the waitlist.

Usage counts

Anonymous counts, so we can show the stores what handle-mcp sends them. On by default. Every event has version and date (day only):

EventWhenFields
server_startedonce a day per machineos
first_tool_callthe first tool call of the day (listing tools is not a call)tool
login_okonce a day per storestore
cart_filledafter 30 quiet minutes, only if every line went in; then nothing until the cart is empty againstore, basket_total_dkk (nearest 50 kr), item_count
list_filledthe same, for REMA 1000's shopping liststore, basket_total_dkk, item_count

Never sent: names, addresses, phone, email, logins, product names, order ids or any id for you or your machine. Events go to Umami Cloud over HTTPS. Umami sees your IP to answer and to guess the country; it does not save it. Sends run in the background with a 2 second timeout, and a failed send never breaks a tool. Cart links carry utm_source=handlemcp.

Your AI tells you once: the first tool answer on a machine has a telemetry_notice. The only file is ~/.config/handle-mcp/telemetry.json: whether the notice was shown, the day each daily event was last sent, and which stores have a counted cart that is not empty yet.

Off:

HANDLE_TELEMETRY=0          # or DO_NOT_TRACK=1, or --no-telemetry

Your own Umami: HANDLE_TELEMETRY_URL and HANDLE_TELEMETRY_WEBSITE. Why: ADR 0005.
