Japan Logistics MCP Server

Japan Logistics MCP 🇯🇵 — How can my AI agent ship a parcel in Japan (Yamato / Sagawa / Japan Post via Ship&co)?

Use it in 60 seconds

Paste this into your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-capable agent):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "japan-logistics": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://logi-jp.wishpool.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Nothing to install. Credentials, when you need them, travel as HTTP headers on each request and are never stored — see the threat model.

Or run it yourself

Would you rather not send production credentials to a server you do not control? Deploy this identical code to your own account and point your agent at your own URL:

git clone https://github.com/junter1989k-ai/japan-logistics-mcp && cd japan-logistics-mcp && npx vercel --prod

Remote MCP server that lets any AI agent ship parcels in Japan — over Yamato (ヤマト運輸), Sagawa (佐川急便), Japan Post (日本郵便) and Seino (西濃運輸), plus international DHL / UPS / FedEx — through the Ship&co shipping API. Estimate carrier rates, create a shipment and its label in one call, track parcels and void labels. Stateless, bring-your-own Ship&co API token, never stores anything.

Live endpoint: https://logi-jp.wishpool.app/mcp · Registry: app.wishpool/japan-logistics-mcp

Quick start

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "japan-logistics": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://logi-jp.wishpool.app/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "x-shipandco-token": "your_shipandco_api_token"
      }
    }
  }
}

No shared demo — use your own Ship&co account. Get an API token self-serve in the Ship&co Dashboard (API menu → Create New Token) and send it in the header above. The server is stateless: on every call it forwards the token to api.shipandco.com as the x-access-token header and stores nothing.

No carrier contract needed for test mode

create_shipment defaults to test:true, which prints a free, non-billable virtual label end-to-end. Yamato and Sagawa need no extra carrier account for test mode — an agent can validate the whole flow with no carrier contract. Set test:false to buy a real billable label.

Tools

Owner policy guardrails ride optional headers (x-agentpay-max-amount, x-agentpay-approval-above, x-agentpay-allowed-tools) — set by the human owner in client config; the agent cannot relax them. The declared goods value (JPY) is gated before the label is created: approval-above returns an unsigned draft with no label created.

Units & addresses

Weight in grams (g), parcel dimensions in centimetres (cm), money in JPY. Japanese addresses use a 7-digit postal code (郵便番号), prefecture (都道府県) and city/ward (市区町村).

Develop

node test/serve.js   # local server on :3252 (/mcp)
node test/e2e.js     # protocol + schema + validation + policy/shipandco units + CORS + fake-token live probe to api.shipandco.com (expects native Ship&co 403 auth error)

How it talks to Ship&co

Base URL https://api.shipandco.com/v1, auth header x-access-token. create_shipment is POST /shipments (creates the shipment and the label in one call → delivery.label PDF + delivery.tracking_numbers). get_rates is POST /rates. query_tracking is GET /tracking/{carrier}/{tracking_number}. void_label is DELETE /shipments/{id}. Test labels are requested with setup.test:true.

Safety

Pure stateless translation layer. Shipments, labels and tracking are held by Ship&co and the carriers; the API token travels per-request in a header, is forwarded as the x-access-token header, and nothing is stored. Parcels flow sender ↔ carrier ↔ recipient directly. Privacy policy.

Sister servers

USA labels (USPS/UPS/FedEx) via EasyPost in usa-logistics-mcp; Indonesia (JNE/J&T/SiCepat) via Biteship in indonesia-logistics-mcp; Taiwan CVS pickup + home delivery in taiwan-logistics-mcp. One family of stateless BYO local-commerce MCP servers: local payments in 81 countries at mcp.wishpool.app and electronic invoicing at inv.wishpool.app.
