Cockpit CMS integration

Cockpit CMS content API for a self-hosted instance: list the items of a collection with Mongo-style filtering, sorting and field projection, read a single item by identifier or by filter, read a singleton, create or update an item through one upsert call, delete an item, fetch several models in one request, walk a tree model, and read an asset record or render a resized image. The credential carries the instance host and an API key created in Cockpit, whose role decides which models are readable and writable.

Say what should happen.
The workflow builds itself.

When this happens, do that in Cockpit CMS.Built from the 10 Cockpit CMS tools below, on the connection you add once.

Common Cockpit CMS use cases

paging through a large collection
pulling published articles for a site build
building a navigation menu from a tree model
producing a thumbnail for an article listing
publishing a generated article into a collection
reading global site settings held in a singleton
loading everything one page needs in a single call
reading one article by identifier before rendering it
removing an entry that should never have been published
reading the dimensions of an image referenced by an article

What you can do with Cockpit CMS

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Item, 8 operations

delete_itemDelete itemDELETEDeletes a single content item by identifier.
get_itemGet itemGETReads a singleton model, or the first collection item matching a filter.
get_item_by_idGet item by idGETReads a single collection item by identifier.
get_treeGet treeGETReads the nested items of a tree model, optionally from one parent down.
list_itemsList itemsGETLists every matching item of a collection as a plain array.
list_items_batchList items batchGETFetches the items of several models at once, keyed by model name.

Asset, 2 operations

render_asset_imageRender asset imageGETRenders a resized version of an image asset and returns the image bytes.

Use Cockpit CMS from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Cockpit CMS in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Cockpit CMS operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"

Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
