README

PDD Shopping MCP

MCP server for Claude Code that enables searching, normalizing, and signal-analyzing products on Pinduoduo (拼多多).

What it does

Write in Claude Code:

"Find Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses on Pinduoduo. Compare options and warn me about fake risk."

Claude uses these MCP tools to fetch structured product data with pre-computed fraud signals, then does its own reasoning and recommendations.

Data Sources

Provider	Status	Notes
`mock`	✅ Always works	Dev/testing. Three Ray-Ban Meta scenarios (replica, suspicious, potentially genuine).
`h5`	⚠️ Requires login cookies	Playwright scraping of mobile.yangkeduo.com. Requires `PDD_H5_COOKIES_JSON`.
`official`	🔲 Skeleton	PDD Open Platform / DDK API. Set `PDD_PROVIDER=official` with credentials.

Important: All mobile.yangkeduo.com pages require login — there is no guest mode. The H5 adapter requires valid session cookies via PDD_H5_COOKIES_JSON. Without cookies it returns NEED_AUTH and falls back to mock data.

Note on H5 scraping: Scraping PDD may violate their Terms of Service. Use for personal research only.

Getting PDD Session Cookies

Log in to Pinduoduo in Chrome (or on your phone)
Open DevTools → Application → Cookies → mobile.yangkeduo.com
Copy cookies to a JSON array format
Set PDD_H5_COOKIES_JSON in your .env file

Cookie format:

[
  {"name": "PDDAccessToken", "value": "...", "domain": ".yangkeduo.com", "path": "/"},
  {"name": "api_uid", "value": "...", "domain": ".yangkeduo.com", "path": "/"}
]

Cookies expire — you may need to refresh them periodically.

Setup

git clone <repo>
cd pdd-shopping-mcp
npm install
npx playwright install chromium
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env as needed (default is mock mode, no config required)

Run

# Development (mock mode — no config needed)
npm run dev

# Real H5 scraping (requires PDD_H5_COOKIES_JSON in .env)
PDD_PROVIDER=h5 npm run dev

# Tests
npm test

Claude Code Config

Add to ~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json (or project .claude/mcporter.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pdd-shopping": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["tsx", "/absolute/path/to/pdd-shopping-mcp/src/index.ts"],
      "env": {
        "PDD_PROVIDER": "h5",
        "CNY_RUB_RATE": "13.5",
        "CARGO_RATE_RUB_PER_KG": "600"
      }
    }
  }
}

Available Tools

Tool	Description
`health_check`	Check server and provider status
`translate_query_to_chinese`	Dictionary-based query translation helper
`search_pdd_products`	Search products, returns `Product[]` with signals
`get_pdd_product_detail`	Get full detail by goodsId or URL
`compare_pdd_products`	Sort by quality signals, generate Russian warnings list
`estimate_cargo_cost`	Calculate total cost including Russia cargo

Product Signals

Each Product has a signals field pre-computed before Claude sees the data:

Signal	Meaning
`replicaKeywordsFound`	Chinese replica keywords in title: 同款, 高仿, 复刻, 潮牌…
`priceSuspiciouslyLow`	Price below 15% of expected brand range
`priceVsExpectedRatio`	Ratio of actual to minimum expected price (0.05 = 5% = almost certainly fake)
`brandMismatch`	Price below 50% of brand minimum
`hasBuyerPhotos`	Whether buyers posted real photos
`noShopInfo`	Shop data completely absent

Claude uses these signals to reason about authenticity and risk.

Example Session

User: Find Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses on Pinduoduo. Compare and warn about fakes.

Claude calls: search_pdd_products("Ray-Ban Meta 智能眼镜")
Claude calls: compare_pdd_products([...results])

Analysis:
• 99 CNY — replicaKeywordsFound: ["同款","潮牌"], priceVsExpectedRatio: 0.07 → AVOID
• 399 CNY — priceSuspiciouslyLow: true, no buyer photos → RISKY  
• 1800 CNY — ratio: 1.2, but only 7 reviews → needs more verification

None are confirmed genuine. Real Ray-Ban Meta retails ~$299 USD (~2200+ CNY).
