If you use AI and Webflow, and aren’t using MCP yet, now’s the time.
I can see the team continually updating the Github repo, which is awesome, and a huge change that slid under the radar quietly is the setup process.
Now, you no longer have to generate an API token and put it in your MCP configuration file. Webflow is hosting the MCP server itself, and it now has integrated OAuth support so you can generate the token automatically during setup.
You still need to have Node installed for npx but that’s easy to do.
I’m using Claude Pro currently, and it’s making large-scale CMS work a joy.
- Generating CMS collections from other datasources, like an RSS feed
- Generating CMS items from an existing site, like importing a WP blog into the Webflow CMS
- Reformatting plaintext to good-looking richtext
- Generating test data that is very specific to a particular client setup ( Webflow inbuilt AI CMS generation is cool but it’s limited compared to what Claude is capable of ).
The uses keep growing.
Nice work Webflow!
