Documentation

README

Liferay MCP Server

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the AI agent integration standard that lets AI tools call Liferay APIs directly without manual REST auth setup.

Available on recent DXP quarterly releases (gated by feature flag LPD-63311, marked beta). Verify against your DXP version before relying on it.

Setup

Enable the Feature Flag

Enable LPD-63311 in the active configuration. Use skills/feature-flags/SKILL.md for the per environment mechanism (Tomcat / Docker prebuilt / Docker custom) and the env var encoding scheme.

Restart the CLI Session

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
