Metabind began as a headless CMS for native mobile apps and has expanded into a Native MCP App Platform. Content management is still a first-class capability — every project has content types, content entries, and assets that can be edited in MCP App Studio, queried by client apps, and rendered through MCP Apps. This tab covers Metabind’s content surface: how to model content, how to manage it, how to query it from your applications, and how MCP Apps consume content alongside Tools.

What “content” means in Metabind

TermWhat it is
Content typeA schema describing a content shape (e.g., “Article” with fields title, body, hero image)
Content entryAn instance of a content type (a specific article, with real values)
AssetA file (image, video, PDF, 3D model) referenced by content
FolderAn organizational container for content entries
TagA label applied to entries for search and filtering
These map directly to the headless CMS shape teams know from Contentful, Sanity, Strapi, or similar platforms. The difference is what they connect to: Metabind’s content can be rendered by BindJS components in mobile apps, served via REST and GraphQL APIs, and fed into MCP Tools so AIs can read or modify it.

Where to manage content

In MCP App Studio:
  • Content tab in the project sidebar — list, search, create, edit, publish content entries.
  • Content Types tab — define and version the schemas content entries follow.
  • Assets tab — upload, manage, and reuse assets across entries.
Editors can work without touching code. Engineers can use the REST or GraphQL APIs for bulk operations.

Where to consume content

Three pathways:
ConsumerUse
Native mobile appUse the iOS/Android SDK to fetch content + render via BindJS
Web app or backendUse the REST or GraphQL API
MCP AppPair an Interactive Tool with a Data Tool that fetches content
The MCP App pathway is the newest. A Data Tool can query Metabind’s GraphQL API to fetch content entries; an Interactive Tool can render them as native UI inside an AI conversation. This is how the same content backs both your mobile app and your MCP App.

Content vs. Types/Tools

The platform now has two related-but-distinct registration units:
  • Types are MCP Tools — Interactive Tools or Data Tools the AI can call. See the Guides tab for the MCP App platform.
  • Content types are CMS schemas — content entries the AI (or your app) can read/write.
A project can have both. They live in separate sidebars in MCP App Studio. They interact through Data Tools — a Data Tool can read or write content via the Content API, giving the AI controlled access to your headless content.

Content delivery APIs

APIUse for
REST APIServer-to-server, bulk operations, auth-heavy flows
GraphQL APIApps that need flexible queries, single-request joins
iOS SDK / Android SDKNative mobile apps with offline + caching
All three speak the same content model. Pick whichever fits your client.

AI-driven content workflows

Content can be created and updated by AIs — useful for:
  • Drafting articles or product descriptions with AI assistance, edited by a human, published when ready.
  • Bulk migration of content from another CMS using an AI agent that maps fields.
  • Operations like archiving stale entries, tagging by topic, or normalizing metadata.
The content-management MCP server exposes context, discovery, and creation tools. See AI content creation.
