Connect the [GravityKit developer-docs MCP](https://mcp.gravitykit.dev/) to your AI coding assistant so it answers GravityKit coding questions from the real source: hooks, the PHP API, version and compatibility data, and GravityView 3.0 CSS design tokens. It is free, hosted, and needs no API key.

## Why connect it

AI coding assistants are fast, but they often guess at plugin internals or rely on signatures from an older version. With this connected, your assistant looks it up instead: the real hook, its parameters, the version it shipped in, and a working example. You get code you can paste, not code you have to double-check.

## What you can ask

Once connected, ask your assistant things like:

- Find a GravityView filter for changing a field's value, and show its parameters and an example.
- Which version added a hook, and is it available on my GravityView 2.x site?
- List the GravityView CSS design tokens for buttons and their default values.
- Write a snippet that uses a specific hook to customize a View.

For example, ask it to customize a View's CSS and it returns the real filter `gk/gravityview/theme/custom-css`, its parameters (`$custom_css`, `$view`), and a ready snippet:

```
add_filter( 'gk/gravityview/theme/custom-css', function( $custom_css, $view ) {
    // Modify $custom_css as needed
    return $custom_css;
}, 10, 2 );
```

add\_filter( 'gk/gravityview/theme/custom-css', function( $custom\_css, $view ) { // Modify $custom\_css as needed return $custom\_css; }, 10, 2 );Read here how to add these code samples to your website: [Where to put code samples.](https://www.gravitykit.com/docs/gravityview/customizing-your-views/where-to-put-code-samples/)

### Claude Code

```
claude mcp add --transport http gravitykit-docs https://mcp.gravitykit.dev/
```

claude mcp add --transport http gravitykit-docs https://mcp.gravitykit.dev/

### Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP clients

Add this to your MCP configuration:

```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gravitykit-docs": { "url": "https://mcp.gravitykit.dev/" }
  }
}
```

{ "mcpServers": { "gravitykit-docs": { "url": "https://mcp.gravitykit.dev/" } } }**Note**: No API key is required. The server is read-only and connects anonymously. To turn off usage analytics, send the `X-GK-Analytics-Opt-Out: 1` header.

## Tips for good results

- Name the product (for example, GravityView) so it scopes the lookup.
- Ask it to cite the hook and the version it used, so you can verify before shipping.
- For theming, ask for the GravityView 3.0 CSS design token instead of guessing a class name.
