• "What are the theme variables?"

Available Tools

The MCP server provides these tools to AI assistants:

list_components

List all available HeroUI Native components (always returns latest version).

// No parameters required

get_component_docs

Get complete component documentation (including examples, props, usage) directly from v3.heroui.com. This tool consolidates component information, props, and examples into a single call.

// Parameters
{
  components: ["Button"]  // Required - array of component names (case-sensitive)
}

// Examples
{
  components: ["Button"]  // Single component
}
{
  components: ["Button", "Card", "TextField"]  // Multiple components
}

Note: Always use list_components first to verify component names before calling this tool.

get_docs

Get HeroUI Native documentation content for guides, principles, and release notes (NOT component docs). Fetches official documentation from v3.heroui.com.

// Parameters
{
  path: string  // Required - exact documentation path
}

// Examples
{
  path: "/docs/native/getting-started/theming"  // Get theming guide
}
{
  path: "/docs/native/getting-started/quick-start"  // Get installation guide
}

Note: For component documentation, use get_component_docs instead. All Native documentation paths start with /docs/native/ prefix.

get_theme_variables

Get HeroUI Native default theme variables and design tokens (actual variable values). Includes both light and dark mode variables for all categories.

Note: For theme documentation and guides, use get_docs({ path: "/docs/native/getting-started/theming" }) instead.

Troubleshooting

MCP server not found

Ensure you have Node.js 22+ installed. The package will be automatically downloaded when using npx.

Connection issues

If you're behind a corporate firewall, you may need to configure proxy settings or use a custom API URL.
