Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more
The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This server provides 10 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
Finding the right branded file is a nightmare of clicks and folder IDs.
Right now, finding a specific asset means logging into Brandfolder, remembering exactly which organization it lives in, then drilling down through five or six subfolders. You're constantly cross-referencing names, checking if the file is the 'final v3,' and downloading everything just to check its metadata.
With this MCP, you just talk to your agent. Need a hero image? Ask for it. The AI handles the entire asset discovery process—from finding the right collection to returning the direct download link. You get the answer instantly.
List global brandfolders and collections are now simple queries.
You no longer have to guess which main folder holds the assets you need, or spend time mapping out complex internal sharing structures. You can ask your agent to list all available Brandfolders using `list_global_brandfolders` and map the entire asset landscape in seconds.
This means every person on your team has immediate access to the full scope of branded content. There's no guesswork about where a file lives.
What you can do with this MCP connector
Connecting your Brandfolder environment to an AI client means you stop dealing with messy folder trees and manual downloads. Instead of clicking through multiple tabs just to find the correct version of a logo, you talk to your agent and get direct links. You can ask it to locate specific campaign assets or check if a collection exists for internal team sharing.
It reads the metadata so you don't have to. This makes finding brand files simple—you just ask for what you need, and the AI pulls the correct link straight from the source. Accessing your full repository this way is managed through Vinkius, making it available instantly in your favorite MCP-compatible client.

How Brandfolder MCP Works
- 1 Install this MCP and authorize it using your personal Brandfolder API Token.
- 2 Your AI agent connects to the service, giving you access to all asset data and organizational structures.

The bottom line is, your AI client handles all the complex API calls; you only write natural language prompts.
Who Is Brandfolder MCP For?
Anyone who spends time searching for the correct version of a logo or template in a massive shared drive. If you're tired of spending 15 minutes navigating folders just to find the Q4 pitch deck, this is for you.
Needs to locate exact campaign logos or hero images quickly for a social post without opening the brand portal.
Requires pulling precise, CDN-backed vectors and assets directly into their design context mid-workflow.
Needs to serve the most recent version of a pitch deck or template directly in a chat session for clients.
What Changes When You Connect
- Stop clicking through directories. Instead of manually searching folders for a logo, use the
get_brandfolder_assetstool to find exact campaign images by just naming the project. - Need proof of compliance? Use
list_asset_tagsto confirm which files have the required legal and brand tags attached before they go live. - Don't rely on tribal knowledge. By calling
list_global_brandfolders, you can see every main asset container available, proving where content lives across your enterprise. - Get immediate links for developers. The
list_asset_attachmentstool gives direct CDN URLs, letting engineers bypass the UI and pull assets into code. - Maintain clean data governance. Use
patch_cms_assetto update metadata when a project name changes, keeping all associated files accurate without touching the file itself.
Real-World Use Cases
Pitching a new client deck
A salesperson needs the latest brand guidelines. They ask their agent to 'Find the newest pitch template for fintech.' The agent uses get_collection_assets and returns a direct link, ensuring they don't use an outdated version.
New content team onboarding
A new marketer needs to understand where all asset types are stored. They ask the agent to 'Show me all available main brand folders.' The agent uses list_global_brandfolders and maps out the entire content landscape.
Debugging a website build
A developer needs to verify if an asset link is valid. They prompt for 'Check the CDN URL for the main header image.' The agent uses list_asset_attachments and provides the verifiable, live path.
Archiving old campaigns
A team lead needs to delete outdated assets from a project. They prompt to 'Permanently remove all files related to Project Phoenix.' The agent uses wipe_media_asset and confirms the deletion.
The Tradeoffs
Manual folder navigation
Opening the Brandfolder UI and clicking through 'Marketing' > 'Q2 Assets' > 'Logos' just to find a single vector logo.
→
Ask your agent to use get_brandfolder_assets with keywords like 'logo' or 'vector'. The agent pulls it directly, saving you the clicks.
Guessing asset metadata
Assuming a file is high-res because it looks big. You download it only to find it's a low-resolution draft.
→
Use get_asset_details to pull the full metadata and confirm its resolution, version, or compliance status before relying on it.
Manually updating asset info
A file is uploaded with an old department name in its description. You have to manually edit the file's properties.
→
Use patch_cms_asset by asking your agent to update the metadata for that specific asset, keeping the record clean.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this MCP if your primary problem is managing and retrieving digital media assets. Specifically, if you need to search across multiple collections or organizations without touching a web browser, this tool is perfect. Don't use it if your goal is database recordkeeping or managing source code repositories; for those tasks, look at specialized data connectors. If you just need to check system credentials, the list_platform_organizations tool confirms which top-level tenants are available in the workspace.
