We're bringing the power of AI directly into your Thrive administration workflow. The Thrive MCP Server connects your favourite AI coding tools - CoPilot, Claude Code, Cursor, and Claude Desktop - to your Thrive platform, letting you manage content, users, and skills through natural conversation instead of navigating multiple screens.
What is the MCP Server?
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server acts as an intelligent bridge between AI assistants and your Thrive platform. Instead of clicking through admin interfaces, you simply describe what you need in plain language, and the AI handles the rest, creating content, managing tags, assigning skills, and more.
What You Can Do
Content Management
Create, update, publish, and manage learning content entirely through conversation. Build articles, videos, quizzes, and mixed-format resources complete with metadata, descriptions, and content items - without leaving your AI tool.
Create new learning content with rich mixed media (text blocks, videos, quizzes, and more)
Update existing content — edit titles, descriptions, and individual content items
Publish content when it's ready, or delete drafts that are no longer needed
Create and manage pages and posts with full control over layout and structure
Search across your content library to find and review existing resources
Skills and Tags
Take full control of how skills, interests, and topics are organised across your platform.
Search your skills taxonomy to find and explore available skills
View and manage tags assigned to any user — skills, interests, and topics
Add or remove tags from users individually or in bulk
Create new tags and generate AI-suggested tags for your content
Update skill levels for users to reflect their progress
Get tag suggestions for specific content to improve discoverability
Check tag permissions to understand who can manage what
User Insights

Content Endorsement
Control which content carries your organisation's official endorsement.
Toggle endorsement status on any piece of content to signal quality and relevance to your learners
How It Works
Connect — Configure the MCP Server with your Thrive environment. A simple browser-based login authenticates you securely using your existing Thrive credentials.
Converse — Open your AI tool (Claude Code, Cursor, or Claude Desktop) and start describing what you need. For example:
"Create a new article about data privacy best practices and tag it with the Compliance skill"
"Show me all skills assigned to the marketing team lead and update their Digital Marketing skill to advanced"
"Search for all onboarding content and publish the three drafts that are ready"
Review — The AI shows you exactly what it's about to do before making changes, so you stay in control at every step
