What is the Crafter CMS MCP Server?
Connect your Crafter CMS instance to any AI agent and take full control of your enterprise headless CMS and Git-based content workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- GraphQL Orchestration — Execute absolute explicit nesting requirements against the delivery schema using raw GraphQL payloads natively
- Studio Tree Navigation — Perform structural extraction of properties driving active Git hierarchies and trace nested XML structures safely
- Git-Based Content Writing — Provision highly-available XML payloads to write physical Git boundaries and generate new pages or components
- Live Publishing — Trigger automated workflow bounds to migrate changes from Crafter Studio onto the high-performance Delivery Engine
- Elasticsearch Discovery — Inspect deep internal arrays leveraging integrated Elasticsearch to perform full-text queries spanning all content nodes
- Platform Governance — Identify precise active arrays spanning rented Context domains and list configured sites and studio users securely
- Environment Audit — Discovered disconnected physical limits fetching site configurations and global variables tied to your frontend SDKs
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Crafter CMS Base URL and Access Token (found in Crafter Studio > Token Management)
- Start managing your Git-based content from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Content Developers — test GraphQL queries and write XML content nodes without opening the Studio interface
- DevOps Engineers — monitor site configurations and verify publication workflows across environments
- Technical Marketers — search for content across global sites and audit metadata using natural language
- Architects — inspect Git hierarchies and verify environment variables tied to headless frontends

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Crafter CMS data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 10 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent write new content files to Crafter Studio via Git?
Yes. Use the 'write_studio_xml' tool. Provide the site name, file path, and raw XML content. The agent will command the backend to write the physical Git boundaries, generating new content nodes or pages directly in your Studio environment.
How do I publish changes from Studio to the live Delivery Engine?
Use the 'publish_crafter_content' tool. Provide the site name and the specific object path. Your agent will trigger the automated publication workflow, migrating the changes from your Git-based Studio repo to the live high-performance delivery endpoint.
Can I perform full-text searches across all site content?
Absolutely. The 'search_crafter_delivery' tool leverages Crafter's Elasticsearch integration. Your agent can pull explicitly queried words spanning all nodes, returning matches based on the query logic defined in your search engine.
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.
