What is the Gorgias MCP server?

If you already use Gorgias, the gorgias mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. MCP server exposing the full Gorgias helpdesk API to AI assistants.

What the server does

Gorgias MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server that gives AI assistants -- Claude, and any other MCP-compatible client -- complete access to the Gorgias helpdesk platform. It ships with 112 tools: 3 high-level "smart" tools that handle the most common workflows, plus 109 raw API tools covering every Gorgias REST endpoint.

Installation

gorgias-mcp-server on npm is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • gorgias_smart_search — Multi-strategy ticket search. Auto-detects emails, ticket IDs (#12345), customer names, view names, and topic keywords. Falls back through
  • gorgias_smart_get_ticket — Retrieves a ticket with its full conversation thread. Fetches ticket and messages in parallel, sorts chronologically, and projects to a compact
  • gorgias_smart_stats — Analytics with automatic defaults, input validation, dimension resolution, and agent name-to-ID resolution. Covers volume, performance, quality
  • Category — Count
  • Tickets — 13

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: GORGIAS_DOMAIN, GORGIAS_EMAIL, GORGIAS_API_KEY, GORGIAS_ACCESS_LEVEL. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

  • Node.js >= 20.0.0

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • With 14 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Gorgias.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

Where it fits

Plenty of team communication servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Gorgias's toolset — gorgias_smart_search, gorgias_smart_get_ticket, gorgias_smart_stats and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by benpalmer1; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
