What is the Sitecore MCP Server?
Connect your Sitecore instance to any AI agent and take full control of your enterprise CMS through natural conversation. Execute headless content operations without navigating the complex Sitecore Content Editor.
What you can do
- Item Management — Retrieve, create, update, and delete Sitecore items using their path or unique ID
- Content Search — Search deeply across your content tree using keywords, templates, and dates
- Site navigation — List item children to traverse the content tree hierarchy natively
- Templates & Layouts — List available templates and retrieve presentation/layout details (renderings and placeholders) for specific pages
- Workflows — Check the current workflow state of any item (e.g., Draft, Review, Published)
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Provide your Sitecore Base URL and your Services Client API Key (Item ID)
- Start managing your digital experience platform from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more context-switching between your editor and the Sitecore backend. Your AI agent becomes your CMS copilot.
Who is this for?
- Content Authors — quickly update field values across multiple pages and see their workflow states without opening the Sitecore client
- Marketers — rapid searches to find legacy content items or verify if specific personalized components are in the right layout
- Developers — automate the creation of test items and query complex Sitecore trees while coding your front-end headless applications

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI agent create new pages from specific templates?
Yes. Ask the agent to list your content templates to find the ID of the template you want (e.g., 'Article' or 'Landing Page'). Then, provide the parent path where you want the new items to exist. Your agent will call the Sitecore API to instantly generate the new items based on those schemas without requiring you to open the Content Editor.
How can I bulk update metadata for outdated pages?
First, ask your agent to search for the specific path or keyword to get all related page IDs. Then, command the agent to update each item by passing a JSON with the new fields (like updating SEO descriptions or valid dates). The AI parses your instruction and dynamically executes the updates directly into Sitecore.
Is it possible to check whether an item is published or still in Draft mode?
Absolutely. You can request the agent to get the workflow state of any given item path. The agent will respond with the current state (e.g., Draft, Awaiting Approval, or Published), making it easy to track content pipelines.
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.
