MCP Server Setup

​
Quick Start

Run the MCP server instantly — no install, no clone, no setup: 
npx @stackfront/mcp-server
The server starts in stdio mode and waits for your AI assistant to connect. Leave this terminal running while you work.

​
Configuration by Editor

In every case below, use npx @stackfront/mcp-server as the command — your AI tool handles the rest.

​
Cursor

Create .cursor/mcp.json at your project root: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stackfront": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@stackfront/mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}
After saving, restart Cursor — the MCP server appears in the MCP panel.

​
Claude Code

Create or edit ~/.claude/settings.json: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stackfront": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@stackfront/mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

​
VS Code (Continue Extension)

In your Continue config (.continuerc.json or Continue extension settings): 
{
  "experimental": {
    "mcpServers": {
      "stackfront": {
        "command": "npx",
        "args": ["@stackfront/mcp-server"]
      }
    }
  }
}

​
Other MCP-Compatible Tools

Any tool that supports the Model Context Protocol can connect: 
{
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["@stackfront/mcp-server"]
}

​
Remote (Cloudflare Workers)

For team-wide use or when you don’t want a local process, connect to the hosted Workers deployment via SSE: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stackfront": {
      "type": "sse",
      "url": "https://stackfront-mcp-server.<your-worker>.workers.dev"
    }
  }
}

​
Internal Development (Full SDK Reflection)

If you need the full capabilities including SDK source introspection (hooks, services, types, GraphQL), clone the monorepo and use the local entry point: 
git clone https://github.com/GetThumbly/stackfront.git
cd stackfront/pkgs/mcp-server
npm install
npm run build
npm start
Then configure your editor with node ./dist/index.js instead of npx @stackfront/mcp-server.

​
Verify It Works

After connecting, ask your AI assistant:
“Search the Stackfront docs for cart checkout” “Show me a code example for product listing”
For the local monorepo version, you can also ask:
“Look up the useCart hook in the SDK”
If the assistant returns documentation or code, the MCP server is working correctly.
