Overview
From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.
An experimental Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation that allows AI assistants to search for product information from Australia's major supermarkets: Coles and Woolworths. This server exposes product search functionality through the MCP protocol, making it easy for AI assistants to retrieve product pricing and details.

Questions
What tools does Coles & Woolworths expose?
2 in total: 2 read-only, 0 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.
Is Coles & Woolworths safe to connect to an agent?
The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B.
What credentials does Coles & Woolworths need?
It reads COLES_API_KEY from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.
How does Coles & Woolworths run?
It speaks stdio, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on PyPI as coles-woolies-mcp.
How current is this page?
The grade is for one exact copy of the source (3eb5c7d8fce6), read on 2026-10-08. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
