What is the Contentstack MCP Server?
Empower your conversational AI with secure and instant read access to your Contentstack headless CMS. Utilizing the Contentstack Delivery API, your agent can efficiently fetch published entries, retrieve asset URLs, and audit content type schema structures in real-time.
What you can do
- Entry Retrieval — Instruct the agent to query and read live content entries by searching for specific title tags or matching query filters.
- Asset Discovery — Request exact URLs from the media library to find specific images, PDFs, or files needed in your conversational context.
- Schema Inspections — Ask for a detailed structural breakdown of any Content Type before utilizing it in an external application.
How it works
- Enable the MCP integration linked to your workspace.
- Secure the connection using a read-only Delivery Token, your Stack API Key, and the targeted Environment Name.
- Chat seamlessly via natural text to retrieve whatever validated content exists within the targeted publishing environment.
Who is this for?
- Developers — Check live payload structures instantly without leaving your ideation environment to verify frontend rendering code.
- Content Managers — Audit what content variants are currently available in the 'production' or 'staging' environments quickly.
- Marketing Integrators — Read copy text snippets and locate public URLs of campaign assets efficiently for cross-platform distribution.

Frequently asked questions
How do I correctly generate a Contentstack Delivery Token?
Log into your core Contentstack account dashboard securely. Access the specific Stack you wish to query and navigate toward the technical 'Settings' header before clicking on 'Tokens'. Within this specific submenu, specifically select 'Delivery Tokens'. Generate a new one with an identifying name, assigning it distinctly to your intended 'Environment'. Note down the produced Token safely to input along with the matching Stack API key below.
Can the agent update entries or publish content directly to the CMS?
No. The integration exclusively relies upon Contentstack's globally distributed 'Delivery API' rather than their 'Management API', deliberately restricting operations to a secure read-only modality focused on retrieving already published entries, preventing accidental automated or unauthorized payload mutations from impacting live production data stores.
Do I need to type the exact environment name as it appears in Contentstack?
Yes, accuracy is strictly required. Providing the exact environment name (e.g., 'production' or 'staging') matching the internal naming correctly ensures the endpoint filters accurately out published iterations of records belonging only to those targeted distribution layers you are aiming specifically at querying reliably during chat prompts.
What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?
Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?
Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?
No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?
Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
