Common questions

Is Capacitor MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.0.1) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, Systemdox

Capacitor MCP Server

Unofficial MCP server for the official Capacitor documentation. It gives AI assistants the current documentation for Capacitor v8, v7, v6 and next, the official and community plugin list, and the Capacitor posts from the Ionic blog — so they stop guessing plugin APIs and CLI flags. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Ionic or OutSystems.

Maintained by Capawesome.

Endpoint

The server is hosted and ready to use. No account, no token, no installation:

npm run build npm test

Set CAPACITOR_MCP_URL to point the proxy at a local server instead of the hosted one:

CAPACITOR_MCP_URL=http://localhost:8787/mcp node dist/index.js

Release

Releases are managed by release-please. Merging its release pull request tags the version, publishes the package to npm and then publishes server.json to the MCP Registry. The version in server.json is bumped by release-please together with package.json, so it never has to be edited by hand. To publish to the registry manually, install mcp-publisher, run mcp-publisher login dns --domain=capawesome.io --private-key= with the Ed25519 private key from the password manager and then mcp-publisher publish.
