How to Use the TYPO3 CMS MCP in Mastra AI

Q: How can Mastra AI handle content updates in TYPO3 CMS?

You use updatecmsentity. You specify the entity name, record ID, and the JSON fields to change. If the update fails due to a temporary network issue, Mastra's built-in backoff logic will automatically retry the operation.

Q: Can I use Mastra AI to check if TYPO3 CMS is operational?

Absolutely. Running pingrestapi verifies connectivity right at the start of your workflow. If the API call fails, the entire process stops gracefully and alerts you.

Q: What steps are needed to list records in TYPO3 CMS using Mastra AI?

You use listbackendrecords, providing both the entity name and any required query parameters. The workflow collects all results into a single, manageable dataset for later steps.

Q: Does Mastra AI support creating new records in TYPO3 CMS?

Yes, you use createcmsentity. You just pass the entity name and the data as a JSON object. This is ideal for generating content automatically based on preceding workflow steps.

Build Reliable Data Retrieval Workflows

When you build a workflow, you need to know the data structure first. Use `get_initial_boot` to retrieve global configuration and the root page schema as part of your initial step. This establishes the context for all subsequent actions. You can then use `list_typoscript_globals` to gather all necessary constants before passing them into a multi-step process. Mastra handles retries if any of these data calls fail.

Manage and Persist CMS Content Changes

To update content, you use `update_cms_entity`. You define the entity name, record ID, and the JSON payload, and Mastra ensures this action completes successfully. This is perfect for automated publishing pipelines. If a workflow fails mid-process, you can configure it to retry the `create_cms_entity` or `update_cms_entity` calls with different parameters.

Audit and Structure Complex Pages

For auditing purposes, Mastra AI lets you call `get_rendered_page`, providing just an ID or path. The workflow receives a structured representation of the full page content. This is much better than getting raw HTML. Additionally, use `list_cms_entity` to list all records for a specific entity type and define complex query parameters within your automated process.

Setup guide

Set up TYPO3 CMS MCP in Mastra AI

Prerequisites

Node.js 18+ and a TypeScript project
@mastra/mcp + @mastra/core packages
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run npm install @mastra/mcp @mastra/core plus your preferred model provider (e.g. @ai-sdk/openai).
2

Configure the MCPClient
Create an MCPClient with your Vinkius endpoint as a URL object. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Discover and inject tools
Call mcpClient.listTools() and spread the result into your agent's tools object. All TYPO3 CMS tools become native Mastra tools.
4

Run with any model
Swap openai("gpt-4o") for any AI SDK-compatible provider. Call agent.generate() and the agent routes tool calls through MCP automatically.

agent.ts

import { MCPClient } from "@mastra/mcp";
import { Agent } from "@mastra/core/agent";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";

const mcpClient = new MCPClient({
  id: "typo3-cms-mcp-client",
  servers: {
    "typo3-cms-mcp": {
      url: new URL(
        "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
      ),
    },
  },
});

const agent = new Agent({
  name: "TYPO3 CMS Agent",
  model: openai("gpt-4o"),
  instructions: "You have access to TYPO3 CMS tools.",
  tools: {
    ...(await mcpClient.listTools()),
  },
});

const result = await agent.generate(
  "List recent TYPO3 CMS transactions"
);
console.log(result.text);
