What is the Contentstack MCP Server?
Connect your Contentstack account to any AI agent and take full control of your agentic experience platform and headless CMS through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Entry Orchestration — List and retrieve document rows bound to specific content types and create new drafts using purely formatted JSON attributes
- Content Mutation — Safely update existing entries by overwriting schema blocks and substituting draft values through the Management API
- Live Publishing — Trigger the exact publication sequence to push CMS data to specific environments (e.g., development, production, staging)
- Schema Inspection — Enumerate global schemas and decode native boundaries to identify exactly what fields and validation rules the database expects
- Media Management — Access global files and retrieve explicit media metadata, including original Contentstack URLs, to mitigate manual CDN scraping
- Repository Cleanup — Irreversibly remove app nodes and delete live document rows to manage internal database allocations and clear quotas
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Contentstack Stack API Key and Management Token
- Start managing your composable content from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Content Managers — create, update, and publish entries across environments without leaving the chat
- Front-end Developers — inspect content type schemas and retrieve asset URLs directly during development
- Product Teams — monitor content models and audit available field types for new digital experiences
- Digital Ops — manage stack environments and verify publication statuses using natural language

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent create new entries in Contentstack?
Yes. Use the 'create_cms_entry' tool. Provide the content type UID and a JSON object containing the entry fields. The agent will orchestrate the absolute explicit bindings to generate a new draft in your stack.
How do I publish an entry to multiple environments via chat?
Use the 'publish_to_environment' tool. Provide the content type UID, the entry UID, and a comma-separated list of environments (e.g., 'production,staging'). The agent will trigger the exact sequence to push your data live.
Can I inspect the fields and validation rules of a content type?
Absolutely. The 'get_schema_details' tool retrieves the structural extraction of properties for a specific content type UID, showing you exactly which fields are required and what data the database expects.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
