      <title>Feature Request: AI Agent / MCP Connector for Toast Menu and Pricing Automation</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I’d love to see Toast support an MCP or AI-agent connector so restaurant operators can connect Toast to tools like Hermes Agent, Claude Desktop, ChatGPT agents, OpenClaw/OpenCode-style local agents, or other automation systems.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The main use case is workflow automation for things like:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Updating menu prices&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Creating or editing menu items&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Managing modifiers and descriptions&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Comparing menus across locations&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Preparing seasonal or monthly specials menu updates&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Auditing menus for missing info or pricing mismatches&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Pulling product mix/sales data to support menu decisions&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Updating online ordering descriptions and availability&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;P&gt;For example, I’d like to upload a monthly specials document, have an agent compare it against Toast, draft the new menu items, prices, modifiers, and descriptions for each location, and prepare the needed Toast updates.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;A Toast-supported connector could expose tools like:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;get_menu_structure&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;search_menu_items&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;get_menu_item&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;create_menu_item&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;update_menu_item&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;update_item_price&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;update_modifier_group&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;compare_menu_across_locations&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;get_product_mix_report&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;get_item_sales_report&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;export_menu_snapshot&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;P&gt;This would let operators build workflows like:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;“Review this new specials menu, compare it to Toast, draft the needed item and price changes for each location, and prepare the updates.”&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Right now, a lot of this work still requires manual clicking, exports, imports, or unofficial workarounds. A Toast-supported MCP/API connector would make it much easier for restaurants to use the AI tools they are already adopting for operations, menu management, reporting, marketing, and planning.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The ideal version would work with MCP-compatible clients and also expose a standard API path for approved developers. Restaurants could then connect Toast to local or cloud agents and build custom workflows around their own operations.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I think this would be a very useful bridge between Toast and the AI tools restaurants are already starting to use.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
