Overview
Lingxing MCP (zach22-1999/lingxing-mcp) is an open-source, read-only Model Context Protocol layer for Lingxing (领星) ERP used by Amazon sellers. It packages Lingxing OpenAPI access — including practical concerns like IP allowlists, fixed egress, and shared team tokens — so technical sellers can query sales, advertising, profit, inventory, replenishment, and reports from Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor.
The author positions it as infrastructure for AI-assisted Amazon ops rather than a zero-setup consumer app: expect to configure cloud egress / whitelist and MCP entrypoints (local stdio and shared HTTP are both discussed in the public README).
Key Features
- Read-only ERP access: Safer default for asking agents about performance without write risk.
- Amazon seller datasets: Sales, ads, profit, inventory, replenishment, and reporting oriented tools.
- OpenAPI client packaging: Shared client encapsulation around Lingxing's public API surface.
- stdio + HTTP entrances: Local assistant wiring and team-shared HTTP deployment patterns.
- Multi-token collaboration: README discusses multi-person token modes for teams.
- Ops-oriented docs: Aimed at sellers who already run Lingxing and can maintain allowlists.
How to Use
- Install an MCP-compatible host (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.).
- Clone or install the server from https://github.com/zach22-1999/lingxing-mcp and follow the README for build /
npx/ Docker commands. - Create API credentials for the underlying platform and put them in the MCP
envblock — never commit secrets. - Register the server in your client MCP config (Claude Desktop
claude_desktop_config.jsonor Cursormcp.json), then restart the client. - Start with read-only prompts; enable write tools only after you understand scopes and confirmation settings.

Best For
Amazon sellers already standardized on Lingxing ERP who want AI coding agents to pull read-only operational metrics during analysis or reporting workflows.
FAQ
Write operations?
Public positioning emphasizes read-only access — do not expect catalog edits or campaign mutation unless the project explicitly adds them later.
Official Lingxing product?
Community open-source project integrating Lingxing OpenAPI; not a substitute for Lingxing's own console.
Who should skip it?
Non-technical sellers unwilling to configure servers, IP allowlists, or MCP clients — the README states it is not a one-click tool for everyone.
Language of docs?
Upstream README content is largely Chinese; the MCP still speaks tool results into your English AI client once configured.
