Claude Code How to use Google Shopping with Claude Code
You want Google Shopping inside Claude Code so it can compare products for a purchase decision, find the best product matches, research an unfamiliar product category, and source a replacement item — without you copy-pasting between tabs. Here is the whole setup, once.
Create your Google Shopping gateway
The gateway is the thing Claude Code connects to, and it is where you decide which Google Shopping tools an agent may use. You create it once and every client reuses it.
-
Create an Arcade account
Sign up and open the dashboard. The free tier is enough to follow this through.
-
Create an MCP Gateway and select your Google Shopping tools
In the dashboard, create a gateway and pick the Google Shopping tools you want to expose. The gateway is what your client connects to, and it is where tool access is decided.
-
Copy your gateway URL
Every client below needs it.
https://api.arcade.dev/mcp/<YOUR-GATEWAY-SLUG>
Connect the gateway to Claude Code
-
Add the gateway as a remote HTTP MCP server
claude mcp add arcade --transport http "<YOUR_ARCADE_GATEWAY_URL>"
-
Verify it was added
claude mcp get arcade claude mcp list
-
Try it out
Open Claude Code in your project and ask it to use one of your Google Shopping tools.

Use the shared API key and tool permissions to control which agents can search for products. Pair it with Contextual Access policies so searches can be limited to approved agents and contexts.
