What is the Tailwind MCP Server?

Resolves and validates Tailwind classes against the actual local project config

What you get

An MCP server that loads your project's tailwind.config.ts/js and exposes its actual design system to AI agents — so they stop hallucinating class names.

Recorded tools

Check the linked publisher documentation and your connected client's tool list. Names and availability can vary with the server version and account permissions.

Tool	What it does
resolve_theme_tokens	Query any namespace in the resolved Tailwind theme. Returns all design tokens as flat key-value pairs.
validate_class_string	Validates a Tailwind className string against the project's resolved config. Returns valid classes, invalid (hallucinated) classes, and conflict warnings.
detect_css_conflicts	Detects conflicting Tailwind utilities — e.g. flex + grid, or absolute + fixed on the same element.
get_config_summary	Returns a compact overview: Tailwind version, prefix, which theme sections are customized, active plugins.
