Core Classes MCPConnector: Connection and protocol management McpMonitor: Performance oversight and monitoring McpService: Core services for MCP operations McpDecisionAgent: Intelligent agent for automation 2. API Endpoints /mcp&customersProducts: Products API /mcp&ragBI: RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) Interface for admins - the rag must ve activated You are free to create other EndPoints (see example above) 3. Admin Configuration Administration interface for configuring MCP servers Token, port, SSL management Real-time monitoring What is Not Provided with the APP The Chat The chat interface is not included in the ClicShopping application. To implement it: Chat construction and connection: Create a chat interface (HTML/CSS/JavaScript) Connect to the MCP server via WebSocket or HTTP Use the available API endpoints: // Example of chat connection const chatEndpoint = 'http://your-domain/index.php?mcp&customersProducts'; // Sending a message fetch(chatEndpoint, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + token }, body: JSON.stringify({ message: 'Looking for products', context: { user_type: 'client', session_id: 'unique_session_id' } }) });   The Node.js/Python MCP Server The external MCP server is not provided with the application. To build it: Node.js MCP Server Example: // Example of a Node.js MCP server const express = require('express'); const app = express(); app.post('/mcp/products', async (req, res) => { // Logic for processing product requests const response = await processProductRequest(req.body); res.json(response); }); app.listen(3000, () => { console.log('MCP server started on port 3000'); }); Server Connection: Configuration in the ClicShopping admin: Host, Port, SSL, Token API Usage: Access via the /Shop/json routes Configuration and Usage Configuration in the Administration MCP configuration is done directly in the ClicShopping administration interface: Available parameters: Server Host: Address of the MCP server (default: localhost) Server Port: Port of the MCP server (default: 3000) SSL: Secure protocol activation Token: Authentication token for security Status: MCP module activation/deactivation Alert configuration: Latency thresholds: Maximum response time Availability thresholds: Maximum downtime Notifications: Email alert configuration Access API - Shop Routes The MCP API is accessible via the /Shop/json routes of ClicShopping: 1. CustomersProducts.php This class serves as the main entry point for the MCP products API. It manages: Main features: Product list: GET ?mcp&customersProducts&action=products Product detail: GET ?mcp&customersProducts&action=product&id={ID} Search: GET ?mcp&customersProducts&action=search&query={TERM} Statistics: GET ?mcp&customersProducts&action=stats Categories: GET ?mcp&customersProducts&action=categories Recommendations: GET ?mcp&customersProducts&action=recommendations Customer chat: POST ?mcp&customersProducts (with JSON body)     Example usage: # Product list curl "http://localhost/clicshopping_test/index.php?mcp&customersProducts&action=products&limit=5" # Product search curl "http://localhost/clicshopping_test/index.php?mcp&customersProducts&action=search&query=washcloth" # Customer chat (POST) curl -X POST "http://localhost/clicshopping_test/index.php?mcp&customersProducts" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"message": "I am looking for cleaning products", "context": {"user_type": "client"}}' 2. RagBI.php RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) interface identical to ClicShopping’s internal chat but accessible via MCP: To use it, you must activate the Agent RAG-BI inside the administration. Features: Semantic queries: Smart search in the database Analytical queries: Analysis of sales and performance data OpenAI Integration: Use of language models for responses Translation cache: Performance optimization Example usage: # RAG BI Query curl -X POST "http://localhost/clicshopping_test/index.php?mcp&ragBI" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"message": "Give me a table of the evolution of turnover by month for the year 2025"}' 3. customerOrders.php Customer order management API: Features: Order list: GET ?mcp&customerOrders&action=list_orders&customer_id={ID} Order detail: GET ?mcp&customerOrders&action=read_order&order_id={ID} Cancellation: POST ?mcp&customerOrders&action=cancel_order Messages: POST ?mcp&customerOrders&action=send_message History: GET ?mcp&customerOrders&action=history&order_id={ID}     Examples of Future Implementation Agentic Approach The MCP system supports the implementation of intelligent agents for: Recommendation Agent: // Example of a Recommendation Agent class RecommendationAgent { public function analyzeCustomerBehavior($customerId) { // Analyze customer behavior // Generate personalized recommendations } }   Stock Management Agent: // Example of a Stock Management Agent class StockAgent { public function predictDemand($productId) { // Demand prediction // Optimization of stock levels } }   Customer Support Agent: // Example of a Support Agent class SupportAgent { public function handleCustomerInquiry($message) { // Process customer inquiries // Automatic escalation if necessary } }   Monitoring and CronJobs Monitoring System The MCP system includes complete monitoring: Monitored metrics: Response time: Latency of MCP requests Availability: Uptime of the MCP server Errors: Error rate and error types Security: Intrusion attempts and unauthorized access Automatic alerts: Performance thresholds: Alerts if response time > threshold Service outages: Notifications in case of unavailability Suspicious activities: Detection of attacks or abuse CronJob Configuration The MCP system uses scheduled tasks for: 1. Health Monitoring (every 5 minutes) // CronJob: McpHealthCron // Checks the health of the MCP server // Stores alerts in the database // Cleans up old alerts (>30 days) 2. Decision Agent (every 5 minutes) // CronJob: mcp_agent // Executes the intelligent decision agent // Processes automated tasks // Updates recommendations CronJob Configuration:   # Add to crontab */5 * * * * /usr/bin/php /path/to/clicshopping/index.php?cronId={CRON_ID} Security Authentication and Authorization Access Tokens: Secure generation: Unique tokens per session Automatic expiration: Token rotation Validation: Verification on every request Endpoint protection: Configured CORS: Controlled access by origin Parameter validation: Input sanitization Production mode: Access restrictions in production Security Best Practices Use HTTPS in production Configure strong tokens and renew them regularly Limit access by IP if necessary Monitor logs to detect suspicious activities Regularly update dependencies Troubleshooting Common Problems 1.
