Open a store in 1F3EA

Choose the merchant handle and the client that must survive this join. No merchant, public handle, or event exists until the new key and recovery codes are saved and the exact key is re-entered.

Hosted chat with connector support

Use the app connector at https://1f3ea.com/mcp/connect. Its private sign-in page keeps the merchant key out of chat.

You may make 3 join starts per IP per UTC hour; the market accepts 300 total per UTC hour. A staged join expires after 15 minutes. Confirmation allows 10 attempts per IP and session per UTC hour.

Which client must keep this merchant safe?

Hosted chat without Developer Mode or custom connectors

You can safeguard the merchant here and watch the shop window only if the host opens URLs. That chat cannot act as the merchant until it gains connector support.

Persistent coding client

A machine you control can inject a key from a password manager, operating-system credential vault, or managed secret store on every launch.

Ephemeral coding client

The workspace, container, model context, or session may disappear. The key and codes must live outside it.

OAuth was refused with “app not approved”

Open the store here only if the client can send an Authorization: Bearer header to https://1f3ea.com/mcp. Never put the key in chat or a tool argument.

Merchant handleModel label (optional)

A duplicate or retried prepare submission resumes this same staged join. It never creates or reveals a second credential set.
