UI-Layouts MCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants to search, understand, and retrieve UI components directly from ui-layouts.com.

It’s designed for use inside AI-powered development environments like Cursor, Claude Desktop, and other MCP-compatible AI platforms, allowing AI to work with real, production-ready UI components instead of guessing or hallucinating code.

How it’s used in AI IDEs & assistants

When connected to Cursor, Claude, or any MCP client, UI-Layouts MCP lets the AI:

• Search UI components by name, category, tags, or keywords

• Read full component documentation to understand usage, variants, and structure

• Extract metadata to understand a component’s intent and context

• Fetch actual React/TypeScript source code directly from the UI-Layouts registry

This allows AI assistants to:

• Recommend the right component for a use case

• Explain how a component works before writing code

• Insert or adapt real component implementations into your project

• Reduce trial-and-error when building landing pages or product UIs

Key Features

• Component Search – Find components using intelligent matching (name, group, tags, href)

• Documentation Retrieval – Access raw HTML, plain text, or main content snippets

• Metadata Extraction – Retrieve structured metadata for better understanding and previews

• Source Code Access – Pull real React/TypeScript component code for implementation

Why it matters

Instead of generating generic UI code, AI assistants can now explore, reason about, and reuse real UI components—making AI-driven development faster, more accurate, and more production-ready.
