Edit ContentStack Entries Directly in Claude Desktop

Stop bouncing between browser tabs to fix typos or update fields in your CMS. Your Claude Desktop agent calls `get_entry_details` to pull the raw content, lets you review it, and runs `update_entry` to save the changes. You get immediate feedback right in your chat panel without leaving your writing flow. Once the edits look good, tell your Claude Desktop agent to trigger `publish_entry` to push the updates to your staging or production environments. This MCP Server handles the handshake, letting you push content live using simple text commands.

Map Content Types and Assets Instantly

Figure out how your stack is structured without digging through the ContentStack UI. The Claude Desktop agent uses `list_content_types` and `get_content_type_details` to inspect the exact fields and validation rules of any schema. It gives you a clear breakdown of what fields are required before you write a single line of copy. You can also track down media files fast in Claude Desktop. By executing `list_assets`, your agent scans your asset library to find file URLs, names, and sizes, meaning you never have to guess if an image is already uploaded.

Inspect Stacks and Environments from the App

Get a quick snapshot of your entire CMS setup in Claude Desktop. The agent invokes `get_stack_info` and `list_environments` to show you exactly which publishing targets are active and how your workspace is configured. This setup means you do not have to copy-paste environment names or stack IDs into Claude Desktop. The MCP Server keeps track of the active targets, making sure your entries go to the right place every time.
