# Sanity

Connects your agent to a Sanity project: content, datasets, releases and schemas. Useful when CMS edits happen in chat instead of Studio.

## What it does

The server lives at `https://mcp.sanity.io` and runs as a remote MCP, so there are no local files to keep in sync. Your agent can read schemas, pull documents from a dataset and inspect releases, which means it works against the live project rather than a stale copy. OAuth handles sign-in; no token to paste.

The short route is `npx sanity@latest mcp configure`, which detects Cursor, Claude and VS Code and writes the config for you. Claude users can also add it directly with `claude mcp add --transport http sanity https://mcp.sanity.io`. Codex takes `codex mcp add sanity --url https://mcp.sanity.io`, while Cursor and GitHub Copilot get a block in `mcp.json`.

Clients without remote MCP support need a proxy such as `mcp-remote` — without one, the connection to `https://mcp.sanity.io` will not come up. If auth breaks after a CLI setup, rerun `npx sanity@latest mcp configure` and restart the client.

## Requirements

        "sanity": {
            "url": "https://mcp.sanity.io"
        }
    }
}
```

### GitHub Copilot

## When to use it
- read document schemas without leaving the chat
- pull dataset records to rewrite copy
- check what landed in a content release
- verify field types before writing a query
- find a document by project without opening Studio

## Example prompts
- Show me the document schemas in my Sanity project
- Pull the latest records from the production dataset
- What changed in the last content release?
