## What it does

The toolkit bundles remote MCP access via `https://mcp.sanity.io`, agent skills, and slash commands inside Claude Code. The server runs remotely. Through it, the assistant inspects schemas, explores datasets, checks releases, and drafts or fine-tunes GROQ queries directly against project content.

Included reference materials cover 25 integration guides and 26 focused rules for content modeling, SEO, and Visual Editing setup. Authentication uses OAuth on first launch, or you can provide an `Authorization: Bearer <token>` header or run `npx sanity@latest mcp configure`. Without an authorized Sanity account, the server cannot inspect schemas or query datasets.

## Get started

Choose your path based on how you want agents to work with Sanity:

1. **MCP server** — Give your agent always up-to-date rules and full access to your Sanity projects. No local files to maintain. Works with Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, Lovable, v0, Replit, OpenCode, and other MCP-compatible clients.
2. **Agent skills** — Install best practices skills for Sanity, content modeling, SEO/AEO, and experimentation. Works with Cursor, Claude Code, and any [Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io)-compatible agent.
3. **Plugin** — Install the Sanity plugin for Cursor, Claude Code, or any Agent Plugins-compatible client. Bundles MCP server, agent skills, and commands.
4. **Manual installation** — Copy the skill references locally for offline use. You'll need to update them yourself.

### Option 1: Install MCP server (recommended)

Give agents direct access to Sanity projects and always up-to-date agent rules via the MCP server.

#### Quick install via Sanity CLI

Run in terminal to detect and configure MCP for Cursor, Claude Code and VS Code automatically:

```bash
npx sanity@latest mcp configure
```

Uses your logged-in CLI user for authentication — no manual tokens or OAuth needed.
