Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an AI assistant manage a Website Toolbox community forum — categories, topics, posts, users, groups, conversations and moderators — through the forum API.

What you can do
  • List, get, create, update and delete categories, including permission listing and updates
  • List, get, create, update and delete topics and posts
  • List, get, create, update and delete users, plus follow and unfollow topics
  • Manage user groups and their members, and manage moderators
  • List, get, create and delete conversations, and list, get and create messages
  • List tags and page views
When to use it
Useful when you run a Website Toolbox forum and want an assistant to draft or publish posts, look up members, tidy categories, or handle moderation and group administration from a chat client instead of the admin area.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio; Node.js 18 or newer (npm package websitetoolbox-mcp, or npx). Needs a Website Toolbox forum API key, found under Integrate → API in the forum admin, supplied as the WEBSITETOOLBOX_API_KEY environment variable. Optionally WEBSITETOOLBOX_USERNAME and WEBSITETOOLBOX_EMAIL to act as a specific user. Network access to the forum API.
Before you install
The API key grants administrative access to the forum; keep it out of shared configs and source control. Many tools create, update or delete categories, topics, posts, users, groups, conversations and moderators, so assistant actions can change or remove live community content and accounts. Forum data, including user details, is sent to the Website Toolbox API.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Websitetoolbox Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

Score

40% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.

  • Reached in the last 30 days25 pts

    Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.

  • Auth declared10 pts

    Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.

  • Tools listed15 pts

    Answer tools/list without a credential, or ship a package that starts in a sandbox without one.
