Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "starwind-ui": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@starwind-ui/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add starwind-ui -- npx -y @starwind-ui/mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "starwind-ui": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@starwind-ui/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "starwind-ui": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",

Common questions

Is Starwind UI MCP Server 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?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.5.1) reached the registry 3 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Official MCP Registry · io.github.starwind-ui/mcp

A TypeScript Model Context Protocol server for Starwind UI v3 and Starwind Pro. It gives AI clients current, framework-aware guidance for Astro and React projects.

Quick start

For the maintained client setup guide, see the Starwind UI MCP documentation.

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml):

[mcp_servers.starwind_ui]

command = "npx" args = ["-y", "@starwind-ui/mcp"] enabled = true

Claude Code (.mcp.json) or Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json):

"mcpServers": { "starwind-ui": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@starwind-ui/mcp"] } } }

Restart the client or reload its MCP servers after changing the configuration.

v3 model

Starwind UI v3 has three related surfaces. The MCP keeps them distinct:

Surface	What it represents	MCP behavior
Styled components	Copy-owned UI components with Astro and/or React implementations	Search and install with `starwind_search` and `starwind_add`
Primitives	Lower-level Astro and React adapters, backed by Starwind Runtime where applicable	Search with `surface: "primitive"`; install with the v3 `primitives add` command
Runtime	Framework-neutral behavior APIs	Fetch with `starwind_docs` using the Runtime topic or surface

The server validates these layers against the versioned ai-manifest.json, caches validated data, and falls back to a bundled v3 snapshot if the site is unavailable.

Tools

Tool	Purpose
`starwind_init`	Generate v3 initialization commands for an existing Astro or React project. Pro is opt-in.
`starwind_add`	Validate requests and generate installation or deferred-install commands for styled components, primitives, or Astro-only Pro blocks.
`starwind_search`	Search styled components, primitives, and Pro blocks with framework metadata and filters.
`starwind_docs`	Resolve exact component, primitive, Runtime, migration, and framework documentation.
`starwind_migrate`	Inspect a project and generate safe, interactive-first v2-to-v3 migration guidance.

Tool calls return both readable JSON text and MCP structuredContent.

Requirements and behavior

Generated v3 CLI commands require Node.js 22.12.0 or newer.
starwind_init targets existing Astro 5+ or React 18+ projects and lets the CLI auto-detect the framework unless framework is supplied.
Free @starwind-pro/* catalog blocks work after ordinary initialization. Paid blocks require explicit authorization; pass pro: true only when it is required.
Starwind Pro blocks currently target Astro. React searches omit them, and React add requests reject them explicitly.
Migration is interactive by default. Set yes: true only when backup-and-overwrite behavior is intended.
Package-manager and project context are detected locally when possible, and add commands pass the resolved package manager to the CLI. No tool executes the generated command.

Upgrading from free to Pro

The MCP keeps Pro discoverable without forcing paid setup. Search results link to the Pro catalog, free Pro blocks remain directly installable, and paid results include a structured proUpgrade path with purchase and installation links.

For an existing Astro project, the MCP recommends:

pnpm dlx starwind@latest setup --yes

The setup command auto-detects the project's package manager, so it does not need a --package-manager flag. It prepares the Pro registry and .env.local; replace the STARWIND_LICENSE_KEY placeholder with the purchased key, then run the returned deferredCommand. Treat the key as sensitive: keep .env.local out of source control and never expose the key in logs or client-side code. A project initialized with pro: true receives the equivalent init --pro command instead.

Development

pnpm build

pnpm lint pnpm test:run

Run the opt-in production manifest contract test with:

RUN_LIVE_CONTRACT_TESTS=1 pnpm test:run src/utils/starwind_live_contract.test.ts
