prism-mcp

Prism MCP Server is a local Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that helps AI assistants work with the Prismatic API for code-native integration and custom component development.

Agent Skills Also Available

If you're interested in AI-assisted coding, also check out our Claude Plugin, which helps your AI assistant understand the Prismatic ecosystem and provides tools for integration development, component development, and more.

Features

This MCP server provides several tools, organized into categories. You may register whatever set of tools are most relevant to your use case.

General Tools (Always Available)

• prism_me: Check login status and display current user profile information
• prism_components_list: List all available components with version options

Integration Tools (Toolset: "integration")

Utilities

• prism_integrations_list: List all integrations
• prism_integrations_init: Initialize a new Code Native Integration
• prism_integrations_convert: Convert an existing Low-Code Integration to Code Native
• prism_integrations_flows_list: List flows for an integration
• prism_integrations_flows_test: Test a flow in an integration
• prism_integrations_flows_listen: Set a flow to "Listening Mode" to capture webhook payloads or polling trigger responses, saving them as payloads for prism_integrations_flows_test
• prism_integrations_import: Import an integration from a specific directory

Codegen

• prism_install_component_manifest: Generate component manifest in CNI src directory (requires [email protected] or greater)
• prism_install_legacy_component_manifest: Generate line to add to a CNI's devDependencies for legacy component manifest installation
• prism_integrations_generate_flow: Generate boilerplate file for a CNI flow
• prism_integrations_generate_config_page: Generate boilerplate code for a CNI config page
• prism_integrations_generate_config_var: Generate boilerplate code for a config variable
• prism_integrations_add_connection_config_var: Returns path to connection wrapper function if available, otherwise generates boilerplate code for a connection config variable
• prism_integrations_add_datasource_config_var: Returns path to datasource wrapper function if available, otherwise generates boilerplate code for a datasource config variable

Component Tools (Toolset: "component")

• prism_components_init: Initialize a new Component (supports WSDL/OpenAPI generation)
• prism_components_publish: Publish a component from a specific directory
• prism_components_generate_manifest: Generate the manifest for a Prismatic component

Toolset Configuration

Tools are organized into toolsets, selected by passing their names as arguments after the working directory (see Command-line arguments):

• integration - Enables all integration-related tools
• component - Enables all component-related tools
• General tools are always available regardless of toolset configuration

If no toolset arguments are passed, all tools are registered by default. Naming an unrecognized toolset is a startup error.

Prerequisites

Authenticate with Prismatic. The server bundles its own pinned copy of the Prism CLI, so you don't need to install one for the server to use — but you do need to be logged in. Install the CLI to run the login command (it writes credentials to a shared config file the server reads automatically), or in headless/CI environments set PRISM_REFRESH_TOKEN instead.

npm install --global @prismatic-io/prism
prism login

Usage

Configuration

Configuration location and methods vary slightly depending on the AI tool you are using, but the following is relatively standard. More specific instructions are below.

Example setup:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prism": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@prismatic-io/prism-mcp", "."],
      "env": {
        "PRISMATIC_URL": "https://app.prismatic.io"
      }
    }
  }
}

If you would like the MCP server to run in a different directory than the currently open workspace, replace the . path argument with your working directory,

{
  "args": ["-y", "@prismatic-io/prism-mcp", "/path/to/code-native/integration"]
}

Command-line arguments:

• First argument: Required. Working directory path that determines where Prism CLI commands are run from. Most coding agents (like Cursor and Claude Code) will interpret . as the current workspace directory. If your coding agent does not support this, you can specify an absolute path of your code-native integration or custom component project instead.

• Remaining arguments: Optional. Toolsets to enable (integration, component). If no toolsets are specified, all tools are registered by default. Being selective about toolsets may improve performance. For example, to enable only integration-related tools:

  {
    "args": ["-y", "@prismatic-io/prism-mcp", ".", "integration"]
  }
  

Optional environment variable options:

• PRISMATIC_URL: https://app.prismatic.io by default. If your Prismatic tenant is hosted in a different region, or if you use a private stack deployment, set this variable to your Prismatic URL.
• MCP_PRISM_PATH: Absolute path to a specific Prism CLI to run instead of the bundled one (e.g. a locally built CLI). Must point at a regular file; otherwise the bundled CLI is used.

Installing with Claude Desktop

Add the above JSON config to your claude_desktop_config.json file.

Installing with Claude Code

To use this MCP server with Claude code, add the above config to your working directory's .mcp.json configuration file.

Alternatively, run

claude mcp add-json prism '{"type":"stdio","command":"npx","args":["-y","@prismatic-io/prism-mcp","."],"env":{"PRISMATIC_URL":"https://app.prismatic.io"}}'

Installing with Cursor

You can configure available MCP Servers via Cursor Settings > MCP Tools, then add the above config to your mcp.json file.

Or, click this link to install automatically: Add MCP Server to Cursor

Installing with VS Code / GitHub Copilot

Add the above config to the .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace, or the global mcp.json file (accessible via the "Add MCP Server..." option in the Command Palette).

Or, click this link to install automatically: Add MCP Server to VS Code

Other tools

If your agent of choice is not listed, please reference their official documentation for setup instructions.
