Connect Crafter CMS MCP to Cline
Create your Vinkius account to connect Crafter CMS to Cline and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Cline builds and publishes end-to-end
The XML writing tool lets your agent build frontend components and their backing content simultaneously. Your agent writes the React code, creates the backing CMS nodes using `write_studio_xml`, and then runs `publish_crafter_content` to push it live. Everything happens in one continuous motion. Instead of asking for permission at every step, the system reads the blueprint constraints via `list_studio_users` and executes the workflow bounds automatically.
Read deep Crafter CMS configurations
The configuration tools prevent your agent from hardcoding API limits. When your agent needs to know the exact routing spaces, it fires `execute_graphql_payload` through the MCP server to inspect the headless engine directly. Grabbing environment variables is just as simple. The system pulls `get_site_config` and `get_site_globals` to enumerate explicitly attached structured rules before it writes a single line of fetch logic.
Manage Git-based XML via this MCP Server
The studio tree tool maps out complex folder structures so you never have to click through a web UI. Now your agent identifies exact nested XML structures safely by calling `get_studio_tree`. Deleting old nodes is completely automated too. If a test suite fails, the agent runs `wipe_studio_xml` to irreversibly vaporize the explicit app nodes and clean up the database.
