Overview

Netlify MCP Server connects MCP-compatible coding agents to the Netlify API and CLI for creating, deploying, and managing projects with natural-language requests. It can run locally through npx or connect through Netlify's hosted MCP endpoint. Reach for it when an agent needs to handle Netlify deployments, environment variables, forms, access controls, extensions, or account and team information.

Use cases

  • Create and deploy a Netlify project from an agent
  • Manage project environment variables and secrets
  • Inspect recent deployment status and errors
  • Update access controls for a Netlify project
  • Install or remove Netlify extensions

Key features

  • Netlify API and CLI access through MCP
  • Project creation, management, builds, and deployments
  • Environment variable and secret management
  • Form submission management
  • Access control and extension management
  • Deployment status cards with text fallback

How Netlify MCP Server works

What Netlify MCP Server does

Netlify MCP Server gives MCP-compatible coding agents access to Netlify project and account operations. Agents can create and manage projects, trigger builds and deployments, inspect deployment status, and work with related Netlify resources through natural-language prompts.

Supported workflows include changing project access controls, installing or removing Netlify extensions, retrieving user and team details, managing form submissions, and creating or updating environment variables and secrets. The server exposes both Netlify API access and CLI-based tools through the MCP interface.

A deployment-focused tool named netlify-open-deployments can display up to five matching deployments for a site. Results can include status, branch, creation time, errors, links, the associated team, and a link to the Netlify dashboard.

How it works

The server can be used as a local MCP process or through Netlify's hosted MCP service. For local use, an MCP client starts the package with npx -y @netlify/mcp. The agent then sends tool requests using the Model Context Protocol, while Netlify handles the underlying API or CLI operation.

The deployment view accepts a required siteId, an optional deployId, and status filtering. When a deployment is active, the view refreshes every five seconds and stops when the deployment finishes or after 15 minutes. Clients without MCP Apps support receive a text-based result instead of the interactive deployment card.

Setup and configuration

Use Node.js 22 or newer, a Netlify account, and an MCP-compatible client. The standard local configuration is:

config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "netlify": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@netlify/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Netlify recommends installing the Netlify CLI globally for the best experience:

Terminal
npm install -g netlify-cli

If authentication fails, a Netlify Personal Access Token can be supplied temporarily as NETLIFY_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN in the server's env configuration. Create the token from Netlify user settings under OAuth, then restart or refresh the MCP client. Remove the token afterward and never commit it to a repository.

Tools and capabilities

  • Create, manage, build, and deploy Netlify projects.
  • Read user and team information.
  • Create and manage environment variables and secrets.
  • Enable and manage form submissions.
  • Change project access controls.
  • Install and uninstall Netlify extensions.
  • Inspect recent deployments with status filtering and deployment links.

Limitations and notes

The deployment card does not provide build logs or multi-project lookup. Use its “Open in Netlify” link for full build details. Interactive refresh behavior requires an MCP Apps-compatible client; other clients receive a text summary. After deploying an updated hosted server, refresh the MCP client's tool catalog.

Frequently Asked Questions about Netlify MCP Server

Netlify MCP Server is an MCP server that connects coding agents to the Netlify API and CLI. Its main tools let agents create, build, deploy, and manage Netlify projects, environment variables, forms, access controls, extensions, deployments, and account information using natural-language requests.

Install it by configuring your MCP client to run `npx -y @netlify/mcp`. Use Node.js 22 or newer, a Netlify account, and an MCP-compatible client. The repository also provides one-click setup links for several clients.

Yes, Netlify MCP Server works with Cursor. Add the server through Cursor's MCP installation link or configure the local command `npx -y @netlify/mcp` in Cursor's MCP settings.

Add a Netlify Personal Access Token temporarily as `NETLIFY_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN` in the server configuration, then restart or refresh the MCP client. Remove the token after authentication is working and do not commit it to source control.
