capacitor-mcp

capacitor-mcp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from capawesome-team/skills. It costs 141 tokens per session (1,755 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup guide for connecting an MCP client—a tool that lets an agent access outside services—to a hosted Capacitor documentation server. Capacitor is a framework for building mobile apps with web technologies; the server provides its documentation, plugin lists, and Ionic blog posts.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for answering Capacitor questions, checking official APIs and examples, browsing available plugins, and reading related Ionic posts.
Why use it?
It gives the agent a step-by-step connection process without requiring an account or token. It also helps the agent find the right Capacitor version and client setup.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

capacitor-mcp scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Capacitor MCP Server

Connect an MCP client to the hosted Capacitor MCP server for the current Capacitor documentation, the official and community plugin list, and the Capacitor posts from the Ionic blog.

The server is hosted by Capawesome — there is nothing to install, no account, and no token:

https://capacitor-mcp.capawesome.io/mcp

This is an unofficial server. It is maintained by Capawesome and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Ionic or OutSystems. It serves the official Capacitor documentation, © the Ionic team and licensed under Apache-2.0.

Prerequisites

  1. An MCP client: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, or any other client that implements the Model Context Protocol.
  2. Network access to https://capacitor-mcp.capawesome.io.
  3. For clients that only start local commands: Node.js 22 or later.

Agent Behavior

  • Guide step-by-step. Walk the user through the process one step at a time. Never present multiple unrelated questions at once.
  • Auto-detect before asking. Detect the MCP client from the project before asking the user which one they use.
  • Never ask for credentials. The server needs no account and no token. Never prompt for one and never write an Authorization header into the configuration.
  • Pass the matching documentation version. Read @capacitor/core from package.json and pass the matching version on every call. See Documentation Versions.

Procedures

Step 1: Detect the MCP Client

Detect the client instead of asking, by checking the project root in this order:

  1. .mcp.json or .claude/ → Claude Code
  2. .cursor/mcp.json or .cursor/ → Cursor
  3. .vscode/mcp.json or .vscode/ → VS Code

If none of these exist, or if more than one matches, ask the user which client to configure. Claude Desktop, Windsurf, and Zed keep their configuration outside the project, so they cannot be detected this way.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
