What is this?

Dify is a powerful open-source LLM app platform — but its workflow builder is a visual drag-and-drop editor. What if you want an AI agent to programmatically create workflows, wire up nodes, test them, iterate, and publish — without a browser?

dify-mcp is the bridge. It exposes the entire Dify console API as a unified tool registry with two surfaces: a CLI any shell-capable agent can drive, and an MCP server (stdio or Streamable HTTP) any MCP-compatible host can attach. Same 138 tools, same JSON contract, same safety guarantees.

Works with your favorite agents

dify-mcp is agent-agnostic by design — no SDK lock-in, no proprietary protocol. If your agent can run a shell command, it can use the CLI. If it speaks MCP, it can attach the server. Most popular agents do both:

Agent	MCP	CLI	Quick setup
Claude Code	✅	✅	claude mcp add dify -- difywf mcp serve
Codex	✅	✅	[mcp_servers.dify] in ~/.codex/config.toml
Gemini CLI	✅	✅	mcpServers.dify in ~/.gemini/settings.json
Cursor	✅	✅	.cursor/mcp.json
Cline	✅	✅	Same JSON shape as Cursor
Windsurf	✅	✅	MCP server config in Windsurf settings
Roo Code	✅	✅	MCP server config in Roo Code settings
Continue	✅	✅	experimental.mcpServer in config.json
Zed	✅	✅	context_servers in ~/.config/zed/settings.json
Aider	-	✅	Run difywf commands directly in chat

Don't see your agent? If it supports MCP or can run shell commands, it works. The connect section below has copy-paste configs for each host.
