Netlify

Manage Netlify sites, deploys, env vars, DNS, and form submissions via MCP. Connect with OAuth.

OAuth 38 tools

Example questions

Try asking your AI client

  • Which Netlify deploys failed in the last 2 days?

  • Did the production build for the marketing site ever finish?

  • What form submissions came in this week - names and emails only?

  • Write a draft DNS record for staging - do not create it yet.

  • Which sites still have a locked deploy?

Overview

Connect Netlify so AI clients can manage sites, deploys, environment variables, DNS, form submissions, and build hooks through the Netlify REST API.

stackgate.ai stores your OAuth token encrypted and calls https://api.netlify.com/api/v1 on your behalf. Tool results are returned to your AI client for that request.

Prerequisites

  • A Netlify account
  • A stackgate.ai account

Getting credentials

Netlify is OAuth-only. There is no personal access token paste on stackgate.ai.

  1. In stackgate.ai, open My Integrations → Netlify.
  2. Click Connect Netlify and authorize the Netlify account and teams you want AI to use.
  3. After redirect, the integration is ready. Use Edit tool access to limit Read vs Write tools if needed.

Optional defaults such as account_id, account_slug, and site_id can be stored on the connection so list and get tools do not need those IDs on every call.

Treat the connection like a password. Disconnect in My Integrations if access should stop, and revoke the app in Netlify if the token is exposed.

Using with AI clients

  • Dedicated endpoint: POST /mcp/netlify with a Sanctum bearer token
  • Private gateway: one config for all integrations - use netlify__* namespaced tools

See Documentation for HTTP authentication and private gateway setup.

Suggested workflow

  1. get_current_user / list_accounts - confirm identity and team (account) IDs.
  2. list_sites / get_site - find site_id (API id, not the subdomain alone).
  3. list_deploys / get_deploy / list_site_builds - inspect deploy and build status.
  4. create_site_build - trigger a git-connected production or branch build.
  5. cancel_deploy / restore_deploy / lock_deploy / unlock_deploy / rollback_site_deploy - traffic control.
  6. list_env_vars / create_env_vars / set_env_var - manage env vars carefully (never echo secret values unless asked).
  7. list_site_forms / list_form_submissions - Netlify Forms.
  8. list_dns_zones / list_dns_records / create_dns_record - DNS.
  9. purge_cache after publishing content that the CDN caches.

Troubleshooting

  • 422 integration not configured - complete the OAuth connect flow in My Integrations.
  • 401 Unauthorized - reconnect Netlify in My Integrations.
  • 403 Forbidden - the Netlify team role or site permissions may lack access for that resource.
  • 429 Too many requests - Netlify typically allows 500 requests per minute; deploys are limited to 3 per minute and 100 per day. Wait and avoid tight polling.
  • Missing site resources - pass site_id on the tool call, or set a default site on the connection.
  • Destructive actions - tools like delete_site, DNS deletes, and env deletes can cause outages; confirm intent before approving Write access.
