The Wix Headless AI toolkit gives AI coding clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and Codex the context they need to build and manage a Wix Headless project from your prompts.
Go from a single prompt to a deployed project, then keep prompting to extend your project's features and functionality.
Wix integrates with your AI client in several ways, and they overlap. Use the table to compare what each option gives you and how to get it. Then use the questions below to find the right fit.
| Tool | What it gives you | How to get it |
|---|---|---|
| Wix Headless skill | The headless build-and-deploy workflow, referenced by URL. | Nothing to install. Paste the skill URL into your prompt. |
| Wix plugin | Wix Skills and the Wix MCP together. | A single command in a supported client. |
| Wix Skills | Self-contained instruction sets, including the Wix Headless skill. | npx skills add wix/skills |
| Wix MCP | Live access to Wix docs, API calls, and project, site, and app management. | Configure it in your client. |
Note: The Wix plugin already includes the Wix Headless skill, which is the same as the skill you reference by URL. If you've installed the plugin, you don't need to reference the skill URL separately. Prompt your agent to build a headless project.
You can build a fully customizable headless project with a single prompt, without installing anything. The Wix Headless skill instructs your AI agent on how to scaffold and deploy a Wix-managed headless project using the CLI.
To start, describe what you want to build to your AI agent and include the skill URL. For example:
Your new project appears in your dashboard alongside your sites. Open your dashboard to manage it.
From here you can keep prompting your agent to extend your project's features and functionality, or continue developing manually with the CLI. To give your agent richer, persistent context for ongoing work, install the Wix plugin.
For ongoing AI development, the Wix plugin adds both Wix Skills and the Wix MCP to your AI client. Once installed, the client can search Wix documentation, scaffold projects, and call Wix APIs directly from your chat.
When you install, your client may ask where to add the plugin: for the current project, or for your user account. Choose the project scope to keep the Wix tools scoped to this project. Choose the user scope to use them everywhere you work with your agent on your computer.
The first time your agent uses a Wix tool, you're prompted to authenticate with your Wix account. This is a one-time browser sign-in, after which your client reuses the authorization.
Select your client and follow the steps to get started.
For other AI clients like Claude Desktop, Windsurf, or n8n, configure the Wix MCP directly.
If you want the skill instruction sets without the Wix MCP, install Wix Skills on their own. Skills are self-contained instruction sets for Wix development tasks, including the Wix Headless skill, which can scaffold and deploy a complete headless project from a single prompt.
To install Wix Skills, run:
Note: Add -g to install globally and make Wix Skills available across all your projects.
The Wix MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that lets your AI client search Wix docs, scaffold code, and call Wix APIs directly from your IDE. It's included in the Wix plugin, but you can also configure it directly for clients that don't support the plugin, such as Claude Desktop, Windsurf, or n8n.
Beyond the toolkit, you can pull Wix docs into any tool or workflow:
