Element-UI MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides comprehensive information about Element-UI v2.15.14 components. This server enables AI assistants to query Element-UI component documentation, properties, events, and usage examples.

Project Introduction

Vue.js is an extremely powerful frontend framework, and Element-UI is one of the most popular and mature UI component libraries from the Vue 2 era. Although the Vue ecosystem has now entered the Vue 3 era, with Element-UI's last commit being on August 24, 2023, there are still many projects based on Vue 2 + Element-UI that continue to be maintained and iterated.

To enable large language models to more accurately understand Element-UI's components, properties, events, and examples when reading, generating, and completing code, and to further improve our development efficiency in maintaining legacy projects, I drew inspiration from the practices of other excellent component libraries and built this Element-UI dedicated MCP Server.

I hope it will be useful in your daily development and save more time for fellow developers who continue to maintain Vue 2 projects.

MCP Integration

To use this server with MCP-compatible clients, you can configure it in two ways:

Option 1: Local Installation

If you have cloned and built the project locally:

Option 2: Global Installation (Recommended)

Install the package globally and use npx:

Then configure in your MCP client:

The npx approach is recommended as it automatically manages the package and ensures you're using the latest version.

Data Source

The component data is extracted from Element-UI v2.15.14 documentation and type definitions, including:

• Component properties and types

• Event definitions

• Usage examples from documentation

• TypeScript definitions
