  • Document CRUD operations (create, read, update, delete) - Schema and metadata handling - DocType discovery and exploration - Detailed API usage instructions and examples - Comprehensive error handling and validation
  1. Integrating Frappe applications with AI assistants for automated document management.
  2. Facilitating AI-driven data entry and retrieval in Frappe.
  3. Enabling AI assistants to perform complex operations on Frappe documents.

Use these steps to connect Frappe MCP Server in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "frappe-mcp-server-appliedrelevance": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-frappe-mcp-server-appliedrelevance"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "frappe-mcp-server-appliedrelevance": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-frappe-mcp-server-appliedrelevance"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "frappe-mcp-server-appliedrelevance": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-frappe-mcp-server-appliedrelevance"
      ]
