MUI MCP

Answers Material UI questions from the official docs and registries, and links to the pages it quotes.

Before you start

If the agent doesn't use it, add a rule telling it to call the useMuiDocs and fetchDocs tools for MUI questions.

MCP server setup

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mui-mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@mui/mcp@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mui-mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@mui/mcp@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Add to .mcp.json. Start Claude Code in the project and approve the mui-mcp server when asked.

Agent setup prompt

Paste this into a coding agent to set MUI MCP up in the client you use.

Set up MUI MCP (https://mui.com/material-ui/getting-started/mcp/) for the AI client I use with this project.

MCP server "mui-mcp":
- Runs locally over stdio: npx -y @mui/mcp@latest
- Needs no sign-in or API key.
- Config file per client: Claude Code: .mcp.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code: .vscode/mcp.json.

Before you start:
- If the agent doesn't use it, add a rule telling it to call the useMuiDocs and fetchDocs tools for MUI questions.

Steps:
1. Ask which client I use if you can't tell.
2. For Claude Code, Cursor, or VS Code, add the "mui-mcp" server to that client's config file, using its documented format. Keep every server and setting already in the file.
3. Reload the client, finish any sign-in, and confirm the server's tools are listed.

Never write a secret value into a config file or ask me to paste one into this chat. If anything here differs from the provider's guide, follow the guide.
