About Neleto CMS
Neleto CMS's built-in MCP server lets site teams work with pages and other site content through MCP clients. It runs on each Neleto site and provides tools for editing, publishing and checking rendered pages, with access limited by the connected account's role.

MCP support
Each Neleto site exposes an MCP server at `/api/mcp` over Streamable HTTP. MCP clients can use OAuth 2.1 or an API token, and permissions follow the connected account's role.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Servers that need sign-in will prompt on first connect.

From the project READMENeleto CMS MCP server
Neleto is an all-in-one CMS with a page builder, built-in rendering and EU hosting. Every Neleto site ships with a native Model Context Protocol server, so Claude, Cursor, VS Code and other MCP clients can read and edit the site directly.
This repository documents that server. It holds no server code: the MCP server is part of every Neleto instance and runs at /api/mcp on your site. Nothing to install on the CMS side.

What an agent can do with it
- Create, update and duplicate pages, including their layout and elements
- Write and publish blog posts and events
- Build reusable components and layouts (HTML templates, CSS, form fields)
- Upload files, including straight from a URL inside a page payload
- Read and change site settings, languages and meta tags
- Check templates before publishing, and open the live page afterwards to confirm it rendered
Access follows the same roles as the admin (admin, developer, editor, author). An agent never gets more rights than the account it connects with.
Endpoint
https://<your-neleto-site>/api/mcp
Transport is Streamable HTTP. Examples: https://mysite.free.neleto.io/api/mcp or https://www.example.com/api/mcp.
Authentication
OAuth 2.1 (Claude.ai, Claude Desktop). The endpoint publishes standard OAuth discovery (/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource, dynamic client registration, PKCE). Add the URL as a custom connector and sign in with your Neleto account. There is no token to copy.
API token (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code and others). Create a token in the Neleto admin under Settings → API Tokens and send it as a header:
Authorization: Bearer <your-token>
OAuth connections can be reviewed and revoked under Profile → Security → Connected applications. Each connection inherits the permissions of the user who approved it.
Setup
Claude.ai and Claude Desktop
Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste https://<your-neleto-site>/api/mcp → sign in.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http neleto https://<your-neleto-site>/api/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer <your-token>"

{
"mcpServers": {
"neleto": {
"url": "https://<your-neleto-site>/api/mcp",

}
}
}
VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
