Introduction

Administration, Access & Security, Development Tools, Coding & Scripts Integration

Update your Joomla website with a simple prompt to an LLM. This is possible with this MCP Server for Joomla which turns your Joomla site into a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, letting AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Cursor connect to your Joomla server and manage the site.


This component exposes an MCP endpoint that proxies to Joomla's own Web Services REST API, with tools for articles (including version history), custom modules, modules, menus and menu items, media, content and installed languages, template management, and multilingual associations.

Key features are:
- An extensive set of tools available to the LLMs for managing Joomla. See some examples below.
- A dashboard capturing request logs and usage stats.
- Security configuration with Bearer-token authentication, IP allow-listing and CORS origin control.
- Configurable fixed-window rate limiting
- Joomla Update System integration for one-click updates

Example tools are:
- Retrieve a Joomla article by ID
- Search Joomla articles
- Create a new Joomla article
- Update an existing Joomla article
- List all Joomla menus (menu types)
- List menu items, optionally filtered by menu type
- Retrieve a Joomla menu item by ID
- Create a new Joomla menu item
- Update an existing Joomla menu item
- Upload media
- Update module
- And many more ...
