Perplexity

Pull Elemeno schemas directly into Claude Desktop

The Elemeno MCP Server lets your local Claude Desktop client fetch live CMS structures using `list_content_collections` and `get_collection_details`. You don't have to keep a browser tab open to check field names or schema types while writing copy or mapping API payloads. Claude reads your active schemas, maps them to your local project files, and writes correct code or structured content instantly. Running the server locally via stdio means your schema data stays on your machine during development.

Audit live CMS content volume from your chat

This MCP integration exposes `quick_content_volume_audit` and `list_published_content` so Claude Desktop can run instant health checks on your production content. If you suspect an import failed or a collection is missing items, just tell Claude to check the numbers. Your agent compares the live item counts against your expected targets, flagging discrepancies before they hit your frontend. You get a clear, raw summary of your CMS activity without digging through the Elemeno web dashboard.

Deep search and retrieve item details in Claude

Running `search_collection_content` and `get_collection_item_details` inside Claude Desktop lets you find specific content items by slug and inspect their raw JSON. You don't need to write custom curl commands or script API calls to verify what a specific entry looks like. Claude parses the returned metadata, extracts the exact fields you need, and helps you format or edit the content directly in your workspace. It speeds up content staging and QA cycles by putting your entire CMS database a keystroke away.
