What it does

Serves SAPUI5 and OpenUI5 API documentation plus project scaffolding to an agent, so generated controls use real properties instead of plausible ones. Narrow, and that narrowness is the point: the UI5 API surface is enormous and mostly undocumented outside SAP's own reference.

Install

Terminal

npx -y @ui5/mcp-server

Client configuration

Paste this into your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any client that reads mcpServers), then restart the client.

mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sapui5": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@ui5/mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Use it for

Teams building Fiori or UI5 apps who need API documentation in context

Skip it if

Any non-SAP frontend

When to use it

Reach for this when the task needs sap inside the agent loop. Skip it if a plain shell command or a one-off script is enough — every server you add costs context and adds a failure mode.

Other TypeScript servers

Filesystem — Gives an agent scoped read, write, and search access to directories you explicitly allow
Memory — A persistent knowledge graph stored in a local JSON file, exposed through entities, relations, and observations
Sequential Thinking — Gives the model a scratchpad for structured, revisable reasoning: numbered thoughts that can branch, revise, and conclude
