What is the Umbraco MCP Server?
Connect your Umbraco CMS backend to any AI agent and take full autonomous control bridging the powerful Delivery and Management APIs purely through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Delivery API Traversing — Instantly list public pages, query by content type, or securely fetch structured fields by their exact domain paths organically
- Backoffice Document Control — Push new document permutations natively adhering to your configured schemas without opening a single GUI panel
- Site Mutations — Command the targeted removal of any outdated published nodes or force updates to internal fields seamlessly via
update_cms_document - Schema & Media Insight — Grab absolute lists tracking your stored binary media files alongside the global Document Types blueprints mapped out natively
How it works
- Subscribe manually to this connected MCP server
- Inject your active Umbraco Base URL mapping and your Management/Delivery Bearer Auth Token
- Engage directly your preferred AI model (Claude or Cursor) asking it to index pages natively
Eliminate messy IDE switching while structuring robust Headless projects. Let the AI prototype content inside Umbraco dynamically utilizing REST interfaces.
Who is this for?
- CMS Platform Engineers — automate routine headless content extractions requesting schema structures from the LLM avoiding UI switch delays
- Digital Editors — prompt the agent to bulk-view lists of raw content items skipping complicated table drill-downs natively
- Frontend Architects — rapidly confirm internal content API stability extracting pure JSON payloads mapping to visual interfaces directly
Built-in capabilities (10)

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Umbraco into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Umbraco and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 10 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
Can it easily retrieve the content of a page assuming I only know its URL path?
Absolutely. Instruct the agent to 'get_delivery_content_by_path' and supply something like '/home/about'. It traverses the Delivery API native routing map and returns perfectly all inner block grids and content variables attached.
How do I ensure the JSON payloads for `create_cms_document` are exactly what Umbraco expects?
Use the agent to first run 'list_document_types'. It pulls down the global schema blueprints. The LLM can explicitly read the allowed field types (like rich text or media pickers) and logically construct the insertion matching it exactly.
Does it pull media details dynamically?
Yes. Pinging 'list_media_assets' grants full insight over all stored visuals inside your Umbraco media containers, returning URL addresses alongside fundamental dimension formats so the agent can reference them anywhere.
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.
