Connect an AI

CraftPages runs a local MCP server so an AI assistant (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor or any MCP client) can work on your site's templates with you. The AI proposes changes; nothing is written until you accept them.

Connect

1. Open Template editing (AI) in the sidebar.
2. Copy the claude mcp add-json craftpages … line and run it once in a terminal (for Claude Code). Other clients: use the address and token shown there (ws://127.0.0.1:7424/mcp by default).
3. When the client connects, a green dot appears next to Template editing (AI).

What the AI can do

• Read pages, CSS and page outlines; see what you clicked in the page editor; take screenshots of pages.
• Propose changes. Each proposal shows a diff and a live preview, and you Accept or Reject it. Accepted proposals can be reverted.
• Only on the project that is open: proposals must name it, and they are refused after you switch projects.

Security

The server listens on your computer only (127.0.0.1), requires a token (regenerate it in App settings) and refuses requests from web pages. The port can be changed in App settings, e.g. when another app uses 7424.
