Installation

Before you can invoke the SyncfusionAngularAssistant MCP server, you need to configure your MCP client with these core settings. The Generic MCP Server Settings shown below are identical across all clients:

Generic MCP Server Settings

• npm package name: @syncfusion/angular-assistant
• Type: stdio (standard input/output transport)
• Command: npx
• Arguments: -y
• Server name: syncfusionAngularAssistant

You need to add your Syncfusion API key as an env parameter in the configuration file:

"env": {
  "Syncfusion_API_Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}

SyncfusionAngularAssistant can be configured in various MCP clients. Below are setup instructions for popular environment:

Syncfusion^® Code Studio

• In Code Studio, open MCP Marketplace, find SyncfusionAngularAssistant, and click Install.
• When prompted, enter your Syncfusion API key and click Submit to register.
• It installs locally on your machine and appears in the Installed list.
• The server is now ready for use in Code Studio. For more details, refer to the Code Studio documentation.

VS Code (GitHub Copilot MCP)

• To configure an MCP server for a specific workspace, you can create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your workspace folder.

{
  "servers": {
    "syncfusion-angular-assistant": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@syncfusion/angular-assistant@latest"
      ],
      "env": {
        "Syncfusion_API_Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

• After updating the configuration in mcp.json, you'll notice a "Start" option at the top of the config. This allows you to easily start the SyncfusionAngularAssistant server directly from the settings interface without additional commands.

• Confirm that SyncfusionAngularAssistant is being used (this does not happen automatically). Look for a statement in the output, which is similar to:

  • SyncfusionAngularAssistant is running... (in VS Code)

Cursor

To configure an MCP server for a specific workspace, you can create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your workspace folder.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "syncfusion-angular-assistant": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@syncfusion/angular-assistant@latest"
      ],
      "env": {
       "Syncfusion_API_Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

JetBrains IDEs
