About Hygraph (Headless CMS) MCP Server
Connect your Hygraph project to any AI agent and take full control of your federated content and headless CMS architecture through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Hygraph (Headless CMS) tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 10 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- GraphQL Orchestration — Execute complex nested queries and mutations directly from your agent to fetch or update structured content without manual REST endpoints
- Schema Introspection — Discover content models and list available fields to understand your project's data structure and scalar parameters automatically
- Document Lifecycle — Create, update, and publish CMS documents, moving content from Draft to Published stages with precise ID targeting
- Media Management — Enumerate media assets and retrieve secure handles and cloud URLs required for frontend delivery and display
- Localization Audit — List project locales and translation spaces to identify which content stages are mapped to specific internationalization rules
- Cleanup Operations — Irreversibly delete specific content nodes and documents to maintain a clean and optimized content repository
The Hygraph (Headless CMS) MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
