What it does
The server gives the agent access to the Netlify API and CLI. Through it the agent can create a project, build and deploy a site and change access controls. It installs and removes Netlify extensions and reads user and team details. It also enables form submissions and manages a project's environment variables and secrets.
Who it is for. For frontend developers hosting on Netlify who want to deploy from their agent.
Good fit when
- You want to publish a site the agent built to Netlify without manual steps
- You need to add or change project environment variables
- You want to enable forms or extensions on an existing site
Not a fit when
- Your site is not hosted on Netlify
- The agent must not change production projects and secrets
Example request
Create a new Netlify project, deploy the current build to it and then add an API_URL variableMCP
- Transport
- stdio
- Authentication
- OAuth
Environment variables
NETLIFY_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKENsecret- Netlify personal access token, only as a temporary workaround for auth problems.
Limitations
Requires a Netlify account and Node.js 22 or newer. Authentication goes through Netlify; on failures the README suggests temporarily passing a personal access token. Access to Netlify from Russia without a VPN is not guaranteed.
How to disable. Remove the netlify block from your editor's MCP configuration. If you added a personal access token, revoke it in Netlify settings.
FAQ
Do I need a token?
Usually not, auth goes through Netlify. The README suggests adding a token temporarily if auth fails and removing it afterwards.
Is Netlify CLI required?
Not strictly, but the README recommends installing it globally for the best experience.
