Create Umbraco Mcp Server

This monorepo contains the Umbraco MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server SDK for building MCP servers that expose Umbraco APIs to AI assistants.

Packages

@umbraco-cms/mcp-server-sdk

The core SDK package providing:

• Tool result formatting and error handling (ProblemDetails aware)
• Structured content helpers with type safety
• Tool decorators (error handling, validation, composition)
• Configuration loading (modes, slices, collections)
• Testing infrastructure (snapshot normalization, test environment setup)
• Eval testing framework (LLM-based acceptance tests using Claude Agent SDK)

Install from npm:

npm install @umbraco-cms/mcp-server-sdk

@umbraco-cms/create-umbraco-mcp-server

CLI tool for scaffolding, configuring, and discovering APIs for new MCP server projects. Covers the first three phases of the development workflow:

1. Create — scaffold a new project
2. Init — configure Umbraco instance and features
3. Discover — analyze APIs and plan tool collections

npx @umbraco-cms/create-umbraco-mcp-server my-mcp-server

@umbraco-cms/mcp-hosted

Building blocks for deploying Umbraco MCP servers to Cloudflare Workers with OAuth authentication and Streamable HTTP transport. Provides consent-screen tool selection, three-tier configuration, and multi-site deployments.

Install from npm:

npm install @umbraco-cms/mcp-hosted

Claude Code Plugin

Skills and agents for building Umbraco MCP servers in Claude Code. Covers Phases 4-5 of the development workflow — tool implementation, testing, and LLM evaluation.

Template

The starter kit bundled by @umbraco-cms/create-umbraco-mcp-server. Pre-configured with the SDK, example tools, tests, and Orval integration.

Getting Started

Create a New MCP Server

npx @umbraco-cms/create-umbraco-mcp-server my-mcp-server
cd my-mcp-server
npm install
npx @umbraco-cms/create-umbraco-mcp-server init

See the full development workflow documentation for all five phases.
