Can I use Strapi as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Strapi CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Strapi through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Strapi tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Strapi credentials stored?

Strapi credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Strapi MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Strapi CLI for Cron Jobs

Schedule repeatable integration workflows from cron while keeping credentials in KosmoKrator config.

Use the headless CLI from cron when an operation should run without an interactive agent session. The Strapi CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Strapi CLI for Cron Jobs
kosmokrator integrations:configure strapi --set api_token="$STRAPI_API_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call strapi.strapi_list_entries '{"content_type":"example_content_type","page":1,"page_size":1,"sort":"example_sort","populate":"example_populate"}' --json

Discovery Before Execution

Agents and scripts can inspect Strapi docs and schemas before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs strapi --json
kosmo integrations:docs strapi.strapi_list_entries --json
kosmo integrations:schema strapi.strapi_list_entries --json
kosmo integrations:search "Strapi" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

Automation Notes

Use --json for machine-readable output.
Keep credentials out of argv by using environment variables or stored KosmoKrator configuration.
Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use --force only for trusted automation.
Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
