project_import
Import a template JSON — additively merges roles, resources, forms, and actions in one call. Same-machine-name items are overwritten in place; everything else is preserved.
How to use it
project_import is exposed by the Ai MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), and the project_import tool becomes available to the model automatically. See the full listing for setup details and every tool this server provides.
