Stimulsoft Documentation MCP Server

Always review AI-generated output: check for architectural problems, security vulnerabilities, and adherence to project standards. AI-generated output can vary greatly based on the prompt, AI model used, and project code clarity.

Supported IDEs:Visual Studio 2022+, Visual Studio Code, Cursor, JetBrains Rider 2025.1+

Compatible AI Tools:GitHub Copilot, JetBrains AI Assistant, Claude Desktop, Claude Code (CLI), ChatGPT (Plus/Team/Enterprise), Gemini CLI, and other MCP-compatible assistants
- Enable Agent Modein your IDE (if required).
- Add the server endpointto your MCP configuration (see instructions below).
- Verify the connection: confirm thatsti_get_platformsandsti_searchappear in your AI assistant's available tools.
- Set custom instructions(optional) to optimize how the assistant uses Stimulsoft tools.

Create or edit.mcp.jsonin the%USERPROFILE%directory:

{ "servers": { "stimulsoft-docs": { "type": "http", "url": "https://devs.stimulsoft.com/mcp-docs" } } }

UseCommand Palette → MCP: Add Server, or create<project>/.vscode/mcp.json:

{ "servers": { "stimulsoft-docs": { "type": "http", "url": "https://devs.stimulsoft.com/mcp-docs" } } }

Alternatively, create.mcp.jsonin the project root:

{ "mcpServers": { "stimulsoft-docs": { "type": "http", "url": "https://devs.stimulsoft.com/mcp-docs" } } }

Create<project>/.cursor/mcp.jsonor go toSettings → Tools & Integrations → New MCP Server:

{ "mcpServers": { "stimulsoft-docs": { "type": "http", "url": "https://devs.stimulsoft.com/mcp-docs" } } }

Go toSettings → Tools → AI Assistant → Model Context Protocol (MCP), click +, select HTTP protocol and supply:

{ "stimulsoft-docs": { "type": "http", "url": "https://devs.stimulsoft.com/mcp-docs" } }

OpenSettings → Connectors → Add custom connector:

Or editclaude_desktop_config.jsondirectly:

- macOS:~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
- Windows:%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{ "mcpServers": { "stimulsoft-docs": { "type": "http", "url": "https://devs.stimulsoft.com/mcp-docs" } } }

Navigate toRepository → Settings → Copilot → Coding agentand add in the "MCP configuration" section:

{ "Stimulsoft Docs MCP Server": { "httpUrl": "https://devs.stimulsoft.com/mcp-docs" } }

To get the most relevant results from the Stimulsoft Documentation MCP Server:

- Be specific about components. Mention exact class names:StiReport,StiViewer,StiDesigner,StiBlazorViewer,StiWebViewer,StiNetCoreViewer.
- Include your technology stack. Specify your platform: WinForms, WPF, Avalonia, ASP.NET Core, Blazor, Angular, React, JS, PHP, Java, Python.
- Request code examplesexplicitly when needed.
- Reference the MCP server. Use phrases like "Use stimulsoft-docs", "search Stimulsoft docs", or "according to Stimulsoft documentation".

- How to export a report to PDF in Blazor? Use stimulsoft-docs.
- Show me how to connect StiReport to a REST API data source in Angular. Search Stimulsoft docs.
- How do I customize StiWebViewer toolbar buttons in ASP.NET Core?
- Create a WPF window with StiViewer displaying a report from file. Use stimulsoft-docs.
- How to add a calculated column to StiReport programmatically in C#?

Define custom instructions to guide how the AI assistant uses Stimulsoft tools.

GitHub Copilot (VS Code, Visual Studio, JetBrains Rider)

Create or edit<project>/.github/copilot-instructions.md:

--- description: 'Answer questions about Stimulsoft Reports & Dashboards using the stimulsoft-docs MCP server' --- You are a developer expert in Stimulsoft Reports & Dashboards. When replying to ANY question about Stimulsoft components, use the stimulsoft-docs MCP server. ## Workflow: 1. Call sti_get_platforms if the target platform is unclear 2. Call sti_search to find relevant documentation sections 3. Provide a comprehensive answer based on retrieved information ## Constraints: - Answer questions based solely on information from the MCP server - Include code examples from documentation when available - Reference specific Stimulsoft classes, properties, and methods - Specify the platform (NET, WPF, BLAZOR, etc.) in search queries

Navigate toSettings → Rules & Memoriesand add a rule with similar content.

Create aProject(Projects → New Project), name it, clickSet custom instructionsand add guidelines similar to the example above. The Stimulsoft MCP connector will be available across all conversations within this project.

# Stimulsoft Development Instructions When working with Stimulsoft Reports & Dashboards: - Always use the stimulsoft-docs MCP server to search documentation - Reference specific Stimulsoft class names (StiReport, StiViewer, etc.) - Include technology stack (WinForms, WPF, Blazor, ASP.NET Core, Angular, React, JS, PHP, Java, Python) - Follow Stimulsoft best practices from official documentation

Reports.NET (WinForms), Reports.WPF, Reports.AVALONIA, Reports.WEB (ASP.NET / ASP.NET Core / MVC), Reports.BLAZOR (Server & WebAssembly), Reports.ANGULAR, Reports.REACT, Reports.JS, Reports.PHP, Reports.JAVA (Java SE & Jakarta EE), Reports.PYTHON, and Stimulsoft Server API.

curl -X POST https://devs.stimulsoft.com/mcp-docs \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

The response should contain bothsti_get_platformsandsti_searchtool definitions.
