Contentful for AI agents
Contentful is a headless CMS for managing structured content, letting teams create and publish content once and deliver it to any channel through an API. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Contentful.
Create a new content entry
Create a new entry in a content type, ready to fill in and publish.
Check a space's environments
List a space's environments before deciding where a content change should be made.
Confirm before deleting an entry
Confirm before deleting an entry, since any page referencing it would break on publish.
124 Contentful actions, graded by risk.
Every Contentful action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

Contentful in three steps.
- 01Your users connect ContentfulThey sign in to Contentful on Arc0 Connect, under your brand, and approve the access you ask for.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Space” can wait for the user, and “delete Tag” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Contentful through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('contentful', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // create_space destructive: 'deny', // delete_tag }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Contentful connects.
Users sign in to Contentful on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Contentful OAuth app, or bring your own so the Contentful consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
The same Contentful connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES

Use Contentful from any agent.
Contentful and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Contentful with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Contentful to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Contentful actions you allow.
How do users connect Contentful?
Users sign in to Contentful on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Contentful OAuth app, or bring your own so the Contentful consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
Which Contentful actions can my agent take?
124 in total: 60 read, 42 write and 22 destructive, such as “create Space”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Contentful?
Yes. Actions like “delete Tag” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call Contentful too?
Yes. The same Contentful connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Contentful into your agent.
Your users connect Contentful once, under your brand. Your agent gets 124 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
