Directus
Enables AI tools and LLMs to interact with your Directus instance via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for content management and data analysis.
About
The Directus extension for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) acts as a bridge, allowing AI tools and Large Language Models (LLMs) to seamlessly communicate with your Directus instance. It transforms Directus into an accessible backend for AI-driven applications, empowering users like content editors to manage content through natural language commands, and data analysts to query and extract insights from their Directus data using AI. The extension integrates directly into your Directus project, leveraging HTTP streaming and providing a robust set of tools for safe interaction, while intentionally limiting destructive actions.
