Use your ButterCMS account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Read blog posts, authors, categories, tags, pages and collection items of a site. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.
Live endpoint: https://buttercms.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io
Connect
- Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste
https://buttercms.usefulapi.io/mcp.
- Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http buttercms https://buttercms.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
- VS Code: Add to VS Code.
- Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your ButterCMS credentials.
Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/buttercms/
On first connect you provide a ButterCMS Read API token (ButterCMS dashboard → Settings → General → API Tokens). Each site has its own token. The server validates it and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.
Tools
read tools are read-only; write tools mutate data (clients should confirm them); meta tools report usage, manage your subscription or send a feature request.
