What you can do with the Convert Experiences MCP Server

Read your whole program in one conversation

If you analyze tests, you already know the tax: exporting reports, opening experiments one by one, stitching the picture together by hand. Connect Convert Experiences to an assistant like Claude Desktop and you can ask for a summary of every experiment in a project over the last quarter, then read performance, winners, and lift across the whole portfolio in a single reply.

Turn past tests into patterns

A finished test is only worth as much as what you learn from it. Used in reporting mode, the Convert Experiences MCP Server helps you surface patterns across concluded tests, such as which pages tend to win, which changes keep failing, where results never reached significance. The question moves from “did this one win?” to “what have we learned across all of them?”, and your next roadmap is built on evidence instead of instinct.

From the Hype Digital Nucleus case study

Build tests in your IDE and push them straight in

If you write the code, you spend too much of the day on boilerplate. Build and configure an experiment inside an IDE like Cursor, then push it into Convert Experiences through the MCP Server with write access on. You cut the repetitive setup work and still review every line of AI-generated code before it goes live.

Standardize QA and reporting across every client

Running several accounts means repeating the same checks in each one. With curated MCP prompt templates, you run audits, QA passes, and portfolio summaries across multiple client projects in Convert Experiences without logging in and out, and you keep write access scoped per client.

How it works

How the Convert Experiences MCP Server works

Ask in plain English, get live data back

Ask “How many experiences are running right now?” or “Summarize every A/B test above a 5% conversion rate from the last 30 days,” and you get an answer pulled from your real account. No SQL, no API calls, no manual export. The Convert Experiences MCP Server gives the model a structured way to read live account, project, experiment, goal, and audience data, so what comes back reflects what is actually happening, not a stale snapshot. Behind that simple exchange, the Convert Experiences MCP Server covers Convert’s REST API v2 through 16 top-level MCP tools, with up to 113 callable actions when full write access is on.

Three access levels, and you hold the switch

The Convert Experiences MCP Server has three access levels, set by one configuration value: reporting, readOnly, and all. ‘Reporting’, the default, reads analytics and insights only. ‘readOnly’ adds detailed configuration and historical data. ‘all’ adds write operations, including create, edit, and delete experiences, goals, audiences, and settings. Because reporting is the default, your account starts read-only and stays that way until you decide otherwise. A strategist can explore data with no risk of changing it, while a developer, on a separate configuration, is cleared to build and deploy.

A Convert expert built into the conversation

When you hit a “how do I…” question, you do not have to leave the chat to find the answer. The Convert Experiences MCP Server carries Convert’s documentation inside it. 5,776 indexed chunks across 500 support articles, searched by meaning rather than keyword. Ask how to set up revenue tracking for a Shopify store or what an experiment’s body schema needs, and the answer comes back grounded in current Convert documentation.

Workflows that run themselves, start to finish

Some jobs are too repetitive to spell out step by step every time. The Convert Experiences MCP Server includes 19 curated prompts that run a guided process for you. Think audits, portfolio summaries, velocity checks, draft QA, active and implementation health checks, cleanup candidates, project defaults, custom-code A/B creation, split URL creation, regex enablement, and safe variation code updates. To save you the blank page, Convert publishes 17 ready-made templates grouped for strategists, developers, and cross-functional teams.

Guardrails so a wrong prompt can’t break a test

The honest worry about letting AI write to a live program is the one bad command. The Convert Experiences MCP Server validates every write before it reaches your account. It blocks unsupported payloads and invalid match objects, forces split URL updates through the correct path, validates typed feature-flag defaults, and backs off on rate-limit errors without retrying unsafe writes. That validation is what lets you say “build the test” without holding your breath.

Two ways to connect

Hosted or local, whichever fits your team

Convert MCP comes in two flavors. Most teams use the hosted connector. Developers who need a local setup can use the npm package instead.

Hosted remote connector

Recommended

Best for analysts, strategists, and most teams.

How you connect
Add the connector URL to your AI client, sign in to Convert, approve access.
Authentication
Convert OAuth — you approve which accounts and projects the connector can reach.
Credentials
Managed by Convert OAuth; nothing to store locally.
Access control
OAuth scopes plus account/project approval, with MCP guardrails on writes.
Connector URL
https://mcp.ai.app.convert.com/mcp

Local npm setup

For developers

Best for developers who want a local stdio server.

How you connect
Run the npm package in your MCP client config.
Authentication
Convert API credentials (Application ID + Secret Key).
Credentials
Stored in your local MCP client environment.
Access control
TOOLS_FOR_CLIENT set to reporting (default), readOnly, or all.
Run command
npx -y @convertcom/mcp-server@latest

Why it works

Convert Experiences MCP Server keeps you in control

Source: Convert MCP Server support documentation, corroborated by agency users Hype Digital and Optiphoenix.

Local npm

Read-only until you say so

The Convert Experiences MCP Server starts in reporting mode, so an AI assistant can read and analyze your data but cannot change anything until you escalate access yourself.

Both

Writes are checked, not trusted

Guardrails block unsupported payloads and invalid match objects, force split URL updates through the correct path, and validate typed feature-flag defaults before any change reaches your account.

Both

Answers come from real docs

The built-in knowledge base holds 5,776 indexed chunks across 500 Convert support articles, so the answers you get are grounded in current documentation, not model guesswork.

Both

You ship the change

The Convert Experiences MCP Server is built for human-in-the-loop work. The model drafts and proposes, you review and approve before anything reaches a live experiment.

Local npm

Every request is signed

The Convert Experiences MCP Server signs each request with HMAC-SHA256, expires requests after 60 seconds, and keeps your API keys in your local environment, so credentials never leave your machine.

Hosted

You approve what the connector can reach

With the hosted connector, you sign in to Convert and approve which accounts and projects the connector can access before it can do anything.

Convert MCP versus the black box

Some AI testing tools optimize your program on their own and tell you the result afterward, which means trusting an outcome you never watched being made. The Convert Experiences MCP Server takes the opposite side. The model reads your data, drafts the work, and explains what it would change. Then you run the final command. The speed comes from cutting the manual labor of pulling reports and writing boilerplate, not from cutting you out.

Case studies

Real teams, real AI-optimized workflows with Convert Experiences MCP Server

Use the Convert MCP server to build custom tools

If you build AI tools, the Convert Experiences MCP Server is also something to build on. Point your copilots, agents, or internal interfaces at Convert as the experimentation layer underneath.

  • In your own AI tools: Connect the Convert Experiences MCP Server inside a custom interface, the way Hype Digital did with Nucleus, so your team works with experiment data in an environment you own.
  • In skill packs and agents: Use the Convert Experiences MCP Server as a callable endpoint in an agent workflow, so running an audit, drafting a QA plan, or setting up a test becomes one step in something larger.
  • In your own tooling: The Convert Experiences MCP Server exposes Convert’s REST API v2 through a standard MCP interface, so whatever you build talks to Convert the same way every other MCP client does.

If you are putting experimentation inside an AI product, Convert Experiences is built to be the endpoint behind it.

How to get started

How to set up the Convert Experiences MCP Server

You can be running in a few minutes. Most teams use the hosted connector; developers can run a local server instead.

Hosted connector

Recommended

Add a custom connector

In Claude, Claude Desktop, or Claude Code, open Settings, then Connectors, and add a custom connector.

Paste the connector URL

Use https://mcp.ai.app.convert.com/mcp. In Cursor or other remote clients, create a remote MCP server entry using Streamable HTTP as the transport and set the same URL.

Sign in and approve access

Connect, sign in to Convert, and approve the account or project access, then complete the OAuth flow.

Pick a capable model for writes

For write actions, use a capable model such as Claude Sonnet 4.5 or newer, with extended thinking on.

Start asking

Have the assistant summarize experiments, run an audit, or create draft tests for review. To skip the blank page, start from one of Convert’s 17 ready-made prompt templates.

Local API-key setup

For developers

Get your Convert API credentials

In Convert Experiences, open Account Settings, then API Keys, and copy your Application ID and Secret Key.

Run the npm package

Run npx -y @convertcom/mcp-server@latest from your MCP client configuration, with your credentials as environment variables.

Set your access level

Set TOOLS_FOR_CLIENT to reporting, readOnly, or all.

Convert Experiences MCP Server: Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Convert Experiences MCP Server?

The Convert Experiences MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server that connects Convert experimentation data to AI assistants such as Claude Desktop and Cursor. As of 2026, it lets analysts, strategists, and developers read experiment results, run audits, and build tests in plain language, with read-only access set as the default.

Do I need to be technical to use Convert Experiences MCP Server?

No. In reporting mode, you can ask the Convert Experiences MCP Server plain-language questions, like summarizing a quarter of experiments, without writing code or exporting data. The technical work, such as building and deploying tests from an IDE, is where developers add the Convert Experiences MCP Server to a tool like Cursor.

Which AI assistants does Convert MCP Server work with?

The Convert Experiences MCP Server works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client. For write actions, Convert Experiences recommends a capable model such as Claude Sonnet 4.5 or newer, with extended thinking enabled.

Can the AI change my live experiments without me knowing in Convert Experiences?

No, not by default. With the local npm setup, the Convert Experiences MCP Server starts in reporting mode, which is read-only. With the hosted connector, you approve which accounts and projects it can reach when you sign in to Convert. In both setups, the model drafts and verifies work, and you approve changes before anything reaches a live experiment.

How is the Convert Experiences MCP Server secured?

It depends on the setup. The hosted connector uses Convert OAuth: you sign in and approve which accounts and projects it can reach. The local npm setup uses your Convert API credentials and signs each request with HMAC-SHA256, keeping keys in your local environment. Both apply MCP guardrails that validate writes and block unsupported or invalid payloads before they reach your account.

Which plans include MCP Server in Convert?

The Convert Experiences MCP Server is available to any Convert account from Growth to Enterprise with API access, since it authenticates with a Convert Application ID and Secret Key from Account Settings. It is not sold as a separate add-on. To confirm availability for your plan, check whether API keys are available in your Account Settings.
