@ui5/webcomponents-mcp-server
Four tools that answer an agent's questions about UI5 Web Components from the framework's own documentation — component API, integration guides, and the docs themselves.
A web component's API is the part a model is most likely to invent: properties, slots, events and methods that look plausible and do not exist. get_component_api returns the real ones for any component across @ui5/webcomponents, @ui5/webcomponents-fiori and @ui5/webcomponents-ai; get_guidelines returns the integration guide for React, Angular or plain JavaScript, installation included; list_docs catalogues what documentation exists and get_doc returns one of them whole. Runs over stdio as npx -y @ui5/webcomponents-mcp-server.

Conditions
PracticalFunctional boundary
It answers from documentation and never opens your project, so it cannot tell you whether the component you are asking about is the one your application already uses. Node.js v20.17 or v22.9 and above; on Windows the command needs a cmd /c prefix.

README
quoted from UI5/webcomponents-mcp-server under Apache-2.0, readUI5 Web Components MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol server for UI5 Web Components development.
Requirements
- Node.js Version v20.17.0, v22.9.0 or higher
- npm Version v8.0.0 or higher
- An MCP client, such as VS Code (GitHub Copilot), Claude Code, Codex, or any other MCP-compatible client
Setup
Standard Configuration for Most Clients
This configuration works for most MCP clients:
{
"mcpServers": {
"@ui5/webcomponents-mcp-server": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@ui5/webcomponents-mcp-server"]
}
}
}
Special configuration for native Windows
On native Windows (not WSL), you might need to prefix npx with `cmd /c`:{
"mcpServers": {
"@ui5/webcomponents-mcp-server": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "cmd",
"args": ["/c", "npx -y @ui5/webcomponents-mcp-server"]
}
}
}
Specific MCP Clients
Besides the general configuration outlined above, some MCP clients offer shortcuts for installing MCP servers.
VS Code
code --add-mcp '{"name":"@ui5/webcomponents-mcp-server","type":"stdio","command":"npx","args":["-y","@ui5/webcomponents-mcp-server"]}'
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport stdio --scope user ui5-webc-mcp-server -- npx -y @ui5/webcomponents-mcp-server
Codex
codex mcp add --transport stdio ui5-webc-mcp-server -- npx -y @ui5/webcomponents-mcp-server
Usage
Once set up, ask your AI assistant things like:
- "Show me the API for ui5-button"
- "How do I use UI5 Web Components with React?"
- "Show me the available documentation"
- "Get the theming documentation"
