What is the Directus MCP Server?
Connect your Directus instance to any AI agent and take full control of your open-source data platform and headless CMS through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Collection Orchestration — Identify bounded routing spaces inside headless Directus SQL mappers and extract database tables traversing collections natively
- Item Management — Provision highly-available JSON payloads to write or update Directus rows, or irreversibly wipe records to clear internal database allocations
- Schema Auditing — Enumerate explicitly attached structured rules defining your PostgreSQL tables and execute bulk iterations to track registered system types
- Metadata Inspection — Analyze specific localized variables decoding native collection boundaries and extracting hidden tracking configurations seamlessly
- Field Discovery — Inspect deep internal arrays defining precisely which fields accept formatting and validate payloads strictly against your DB links
- Identity Oversight — Explains explicitly mapped profile arrays iterating the exact users authorized within the DB layer enforcing RBAC boundaries securely
- Media Storage — Retrieve the exact structural matching verifying file uploads and generating download routes for active frontends
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Directus Base URL and Static Token (found in User Directory > User > Token)
- Start managing your data platform from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Database Administrators — audit schemas and manage users without writing complex SQL or using the Studio interface
- Full-stack Developers — create and update records and manage digital assets directly from the IDE or chat
- Product Teams — monitor collection data and verify field configurations across different environments
- Content Editors — manage headless content and digital assets through natural language conversation

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent list all collections and their fields in Directus?
Yes. Use the 'list_schema_collections' tool to see all tables, and then use 'list_collection_fields' for a specific collection. The agent retrieves the absolute structural details defining precisely which fields accept formatting.
How do I create a new record in a specific Directus collection?
Use the 'create_cms_record' tool. Provide the collection name and a JSON payload mapping the columns. Your agent will orchestrate the request to drop the formatted endpoint into your database and return the new UUID.
Can I audit authorized users and their roles via the agent?
Absolutely. The 'list_directus_users' tool retrieves the explicitly mapped profile arrays iterating the exact users authorized within the database layer. This helps you monitor RBAC boundaries and organizational identities.
How does the Vercel AI SDK connect to MCP servers?
Import createMCPClient from @ai-sdk/mcp and pass the server URL. The SDK discovers all tools and provides typed TypeScript interfaces for each one.
Can I use MCP tools in Edge Functions?
Yes. The AI SDK is fully edge-compatible. MCP connections work on Vercel Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and similar runtimes.
Does it support streaming tool results?
Yes. The SDK provides streaming primitives like useChat and streamText that handle tool calls and display results progressively in the UI.
createMCPClient is not a function
