Capacitor tools (4)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsget_doc_pageFreeRead the full markdown of a single page of the official Capacitor documentation. Use this after `search_docs` to read a page end to end before writing code against a plugin API, a CLI command or a native configuration, because search snippets are deliberately short and regularly omit required setup steps. Returns the page title, its URL, the documentation version and the complete page markdown including code samples. Do not use this to find a page: it needs an exact URL or path, so run `search_docs` first. Do not use it for pages outside capacitorjs.com — Capawesome plugins and Capawesome Cloud are covered by the Capawesome MCP server at https://mcp.capawesome.io/mcp, Ionic Framework UI components by the Ionic Framework MCP server at https://ionic-framework-mcp.capawesome.io/mcp.
list_blog_postsFreeList the 10 most recent posts from the Capacitor tag of the official Ionic blog, newest first. Use this when the question is about what is new — recent releases, announcements or deprecations. The blog covers both Capacitor and Ionic Framework. Returns `title`, `date`, `tags`, `url` and `excerpt` per post. Do not use this to answer a documentation question: the feed only carries the newest posts, so search the documentation with `search_docs` instead.
list_pluginsFreeList Capacitor plugins: the official plugins maintained by the Capacitor team and community plugins from the awesome-capacitorjs list maintained by Capawesome. Use this to find a plugin for a native capability before writing custom native code, and to learn which package name and maintainer a capability belongs to. Returns `name`, `description`, `source`, `maintainer` and `url` per plugin, plus `core: true` for a plugin that ships with @capacitor/core and `experimental: true` for an experimental one. Results are ranked by relevance, with official Capacitor plugins ranked first, then plugins maintained by Capawesome, then other community plugins. Do not use this to read a plugin's API: call `get_doc_page` with the `url` of an official plugin, and use the Capawesome MCP server at https://mcp.capawesome.io/mcp for Capawesome plugins.
search_docsFreeSearch the official Capacitor documentation from capacitorjs.com by keyword. Use this first for any question about Capacitor itself — the CLI, the `capacitor.config` file, the native Android and iOS projects, the official plugin APIs, or upgrading to a newer major version — because guessing an API, a configuration option or a CLI flag produces broken code. Returns the best matching page sections with `title`, `url`, `snippet`, `section` and `version`, plus the `parentTitle` and `parentUrl` of the page a section belongs to. The same results are attached as structured content. Do not use this to read a whole page (call `get_doc_page` with a `url` from these results), to look up Capawesome plugins such as @capawesome/capacitor-file-picker or Capawesome Cloud services such as Live Updates, Native Builds and App Store Publishing (use the Capawesome MCP server at https://mcp.capawesome.io/mcp instead), or to look up Ionic Framework UI components (use the Ionic Framework MCP server at https://ionic-framework-mcp.capawesome.io/mcp instead).

Capacitor MCP Server
Unofficial MCP server for the official Capacitor documentation. It gives AI assistants the current documentation for Capacitor v8, v7, v6 and next, the official and community plugin list, and the Capacitor posts from the Ionic blog — so they stop guessing plugin APIs and CLI flags. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Ionic or OutSystems.
Maintained by Capawesome.
