Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@stitch-bridge Generate a mobile login screen with email and Google sign-in"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
stitch-bridge
MCP server that gives AI coding agents the ability to design UIs through Google Stitch.
Your agent describes what it wants. Stitch generates production-ready HTML. stitch-bridge handles everything in between.
How it works
Your AI Agent <--> stitch-bridge (MCP) <--> Google Stitch SDK --> HTML / Screenshotsstitch-bridge runs as a local Model Context Protocol server over stdio. Any MCP-compatible client (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) can connect to it and use 9 tools to create, edit, and manage UI designs, all through natural language prompts.
The Stitch SDK handles the actual generation using Gemini models. stitch-bridge fetches the results (HTML source, base64 screenshots) and returns them directly to the agent, so it can inspect, iterate, or save the output without leaving its workflow.

Quick start
1. Get a Stitch API key
Sign up at stitch.google.com and grab your API key.
2. Add to your MCP client
Add to your MCP config (e.g. .mcp.json, claude_desktop_config.json, or your editor's MCP settings):
{
"mcpServers": {
"stitch-bridge": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "stitch-bridge"],
"env": {
"STITCH_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
}
}
}
}Or install globally:
npm install -g stitch-bridgeThen configure with command: "stitch-bridge" instead of using npx.
3. Use it
Ask your agent to design something:
"Create a project and generate a mobile login screen with email and Google sign-in"
The agent will call create_project, then generate_screen, and return the full HTML.

Output
Every tool returns JSON. The key outputs:
Generated screens return the full HTML source inline:
{
"projectId": "proj-abc",
"screenId": "scr-123",
"html": "<!DOCTYPE html><html>..."
}Screenshots return base64-encoded images:
{
"screenId": "scr-123",
"base64": "iVBORw0KGgo...",
"mimeType": "image/png"
}Multi-page sites return HTML per route:
{
"projectId": "proj-abc",
"pages": [
{ "route": "/", "screenId": "scr-1", "html": "..." },
{ "route": "/about", "screenId": "scr-2", "html": "..." }
]

Scored across 9 tools
Each tool targets a distinct resource-action pair: projects vs screens, and create/edit/list/get/build each have clear separation. No two tools appear to do the same thing, even generate_screen and edit_screen are differentiated by new vs existing.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun snake_case pattern (list_projects, create_project, generate_screen, edit_screen, etc.). The naming is predictable and uniform across the entire set.
With 9 tools, the set is well-scoped for a UI design/build server. Each tool covers a necessary operation without redundancy or bloat, fitting comfortably in the ideal 3-15 range.
The set covers core lifecycle operations for projects and screens, including creation, retrieval, editing, and site building. Minor gaps exist, such as no delete operations for projects or screens, but these are workaround-able and not critical for the primary workflow.
