21st MCP — UI Components for AI Coding Agents | 21st
Using agents
Enable agentic workflows with 21st's powerful MCP server.
Install & sign in
Copy as prompt
One global install; login opens the browser and saves a token locally.
npm i -g @21st-dev/cli
21st login
In CI or scripts, skip login and pass --api-key $API_KEY_21ST (or set the env var) instead.
What do you want to do?
Each job is a skill CLI loads on its own, plus the command behind it. Install the skills once; the copy button hands over the whole prompt.
