# Using MuleSoft DX MCP Server

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

MuleSoft DX MCP Server integrates with MuleSoft Vibes so that you can build, deploy, and manage
projects using natural language prompts. Whether you use Anypoint Code Builder, Cursor, Windsurf, or
another MCP-compatible IDE, you keep the full Mule application lifecycle in your editor.

To learn more about MuleSoft Vibes, see
[Get Started with MuleSoft Vibes](https://docs.mulesoft.com/anypoint-code-builder/vibes-get-started).

To learn more about the MuleSoft DX MCP Server tools, see
[MuleSoft DX MCP Server Tool Reference](https://docs.mulesoft.com/mulesoft-mcp-server/reference-mcp-tools).

## Before You Begin

Before you get started, make sure you meet these prerequisites.

- If you’re using Anypoint Code Builder, make sure that you:

  - [Set up and access the desktop IDE](https://docs.mulesoft.com/anypoint-code-builder/start-acb).

  - Set the
    [required Anypoint Code Builder permissions](https://docs.mulesoft.com/anypoint-code-builder/start-configure-permissions#permissions),
    including the Mule Developer Generative AI User permission.

  - [Enabling or Disabling Generative AI for Anypoint Platform](https://docs.mulesoft.com/access-management/enabling-generative-ai).

- If you’re using Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible IDE, make sure you set up and configure
  MuleSoft DX MCP Server for your IDE, including all permissions. See
  [Getting Started with MuleSoft DX MCP Server](https://docs.mulesoft.com/mulesoft-mcp-server/getting-started).

## Example: Create a Network Using MuleSoft Vibes

1.  In the Anypoint Code Builder activity bar (or similar location in your IDE), click the agent
    icon ![](/mulesoft/current/en-us/mulesoft-mcp-server/_images/af-acb-dev-agent-icon.png).

2.  In the prompt field, describe your agent network, including the brokers, agents, MCP servers,
    and LLMs you want to connect. MuleSoft Vibes does the rest.

For example, consider this prompt entered using the agent’s
[Plan mode](https://docs.mulesoft.com/anypoint-code-builder/vibes-get-started#plan-and-act-modes):
`Create a new agent network project called "Employee Onboarding." Add HR agent and CRM agent.`

The agent asks for `projectPath`, which is a required parameter for the
[`create_agent_network_project`](https://docs.mulesoft.com/mulesoft-mcp-server/reference-mcp-tools#create-agent-network-project) tool.

After successfully running, the agent creates an `agent-network.yaml` file and responds with a final
success summary.

```json
{
  "success": true,
  "projectPath": "/Users/test/src/mulesoft/mulesoft-mcp-server/Employee Onboarding",
  "message": "Employee Onboarding agent network created successfully",
  "components": {
    "agents": ["hr-agent", "crm-agent"],
    "brokers": ["onboarding-coordinator"],
    "connections": 1,
    "filesCreated": ["agent-network.yaml", "exchange.json", "README.md"]
  },
  "nextSteps": [
    "Deploy to runtime environment using deploy_agent_network",
    "Publish to Exchange using publish_agent_network_assets",
    "Open project in workspace using open_project"
  ],
  "validationStatus": "passed"
}
```
