What it does

The server lets the agent work with the Contentful headless CMS. The agent searches entries, including by meaning, and creates, edits, publishes and unpublishes entries and assets. It changes the content model, creates environments, locales and tags, and resolves draft preview URLs. It can also create and run AI Actions, for example for translation. Environments can be write-protected with PROTECTED_ENVIRONMENTS.

Who it is for. For content teams and developers who run a site or app on Contentful.

Example request

Add a rating field to the product content type and fill it for all published products

Limitations

Requires a Contentful account, a Space ID and a Management API personal access token. Environment protection works only inside the server and does not replace Contentful roles. Contentful has restricted service for users in Russia, so access without a VPN is not guaranteed.

How to disable. Remove the contentful-mcp block from the client config and revoke the personal access token in Contentful settings.
