MCP server that provides efficient access to Syncfusion documentation, implementation guidelines, and code generation for ASP.NET CORE
The SyncfusionAspNetCoreAssistant is a specialized Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to enhance development with Syncfusion's ASP.NET Core control libraries. It integrates seamlessly with MCP-compatible clients to provide intelligent assistance for building ASP.NET Core applications with Syncfusion® controls.
Before using SyncfusionAspNetCoreAssistant, ensure you have:
Syncfusion® offers unlimited access to this MCP server. There are no restrictions on:
This ensures users can fully leverage Syncfusion® controls to enhance their development experience without limitations.
Before you can invoke the SyncfusionAspNetCoreAssistant 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:
@syncfusion/aspnetcore-assistantLogin to your Syncfusion account and generate an API Key from the API Key page. Replace YOUR_API_KEY_FILE_PATH or YOUR_API_KEY in the configuration files with your generated key.
There are two options:
Using an API Key File (Recommended)
Store your API key in a separate file and reference its path in the Syncfusion_API_Key_Path environment parameter. This approach is more secure as you don't expose the key directly in configuration files.
Supported file formats: .txt or .key file
"env": {
"Syncfusion_API_Key_Path": "YOUR_API_KEY_FILE_PATH" // "D:\\syncfusion-key.txt" (or) "D:\\syncfusion-key.key"
}
Direct API Key
Paste your Syncfusion_API_Key directly in the configuration file's environment parameter.
"env": {
"Syncfusion_API_Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
Below are setup instructions for popular MCP clients:
Custom Servers tab.aspnetcore-mcp, choose Server Type as npm package, and set the NPM Package name to @syncfusion/aspnetcore-assistant.Syncfusion_API_Key and value as your Syncfusion API key, then click Install Server..vs/mcp.json file in your workspace folder.{
"servers": {
"syncfusion-aspnetcore-assistant": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@syncfusion/aspnetcore-assistant@latest"
],
"env": {
"Syncfusion_API_Key_Path": "YOUR_API_KEY_FILE_PATH",
// or
"Syncfusion_API_Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}
.vscode/mcp.json file in your workspace folder.{
"servers": {
"syncfusion-aspnetcore-assistant": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@syncfusion/aspnetcore-assistant@latest"
],
"env": {
"Syncfusion_API_Key_Path": "YOUR_API_KEY_FILE_PATH",
// or
"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 SyncfusionAspNetCoreAssistant server directly from the settings interface without additional commands.
Confirm the server is active by checking for a message like: SyncfusionAspNetCoreAssistant is running... in the output.
For additional guidance, refer to the VS Code documentation.
To configure an MCP server for a specific workspace, you can create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your workspace folder.
{
"mcpServers": {
"syncfusion-aspnetcore-assistant": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@syncfusion/aspnetcore-assistant@latest"
],
"env": {
"Syncfusion_API_Key_Path": "YOUR_API_KEY_FILE_PATH",
// or
"Syncfusion_API_Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}
For more details, refer to the Cursor documentation.
As JSON and add the following config:{
"mcpServers": {
"syncfusion-aspnetcore-assistant": {
"command": "npx.cmd",
"args": [
"-y",
"@syncfusion/aspnetcore-assistant@latest"
],
"env": {
"Syncfusion_API_Key_Path": "YOUR_API_KEY_FILE_PATH",
// or
"Syncfusion_API_Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}
For further assistance, see the JetBrains documentation.
For more detailed information about configuring MCP servers in various clients, refer to the official documentations, e.g., Windsurf
To activate the SyncfusionAspNetCoreAssistant MCP server:
Start your prompt with one of the following:
In VS Code, use #SyncfusionAspNetCoreAssistant for direct invocation.
Grant permission for the server to run (for the session, workspace, or always).
For best results, start a new chat for each new topic to maintain clean context.
Syncfusion® MCP Servers provide full access to all AI interaction modes — Ask/Chat, Edit, and Agent — across supported MCP clients.
Be specific: Mention both platform and control (e.g., "How do I create a Syncfusion ASP.NET Core Grid with paging and filtering?").Provide context: Include details about your use case for more targeted solutions.Use descriptive queries: Avoid vague questions that lack necessary context.Start fresh for new topics: Begin a new chat session when switching controls or topics.Here are some effective ways to use SyncfusionAspNetCoreAssistant:
