mcp server that queries my contentful space.
Most developer tooling work still happens through a UI a human drives. Contentful MCP server moves it into the conversation instead. mcp server that queries my contentful space.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that allows Claude to interact with Contentful CMS data directly. This integration enables Claude to fetch content types and entries from your Contentful space.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at Create on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Configuration is passed through the environment: CONTENTFUL_SPACE_ID, CONTENTFUL_ACCESS_TOKEN, CONTENTFUL_PREVIEW_ACCESS_TOKEN. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. It is maintained by tejedamiguel6; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
This entry was verified against Contentful's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.
