Before you start
- Access to DevExpress MCP tooling per current docs
- Node or runtime required by the official server
What you can do with DevExpress
- Give UI engineers Context7-style DevExpress help via Bifrost
- Share one DevExpress MCP process across Cursor and Claude Code
- Log documentation-tool usage for enablement metrics
[ HOW TO CONNECT ]
Connect DevExpress to Bifrost in three steps
Install Bifrost
Start the gateway locally or deploy in your VPC.
npx -y @maximhq/bifrost
Add DevExpress in MCP Gateway
Open MCP Gateway in the Bifrost dashboard, click New MCP Server, and choose STDIO. Or register via the API below.
• Confirm the official package name and connection type in current DevExpress documentation before deploying.
• Prefer linking officialDocsUrl from your catalog entry if DevExpress publishes a dedicated MCP guide.
Point clients at Bifrost /mcp
Configure Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Claude Code to use your Bifrost endpoint with a virtual key instead of connecting directly to DevExpress.

}'[ WHY BIFROST ]
Run DevExpress through one governed gateway
Access control
Virtual keys, RBAC, and tool allowlists per team or agent.
Cost governance
Attribute MCP tool spend alongside LLM usage in one view.
Observability
Log every tool call with latency, server, and virtual key metadata.
Credential isolation
Upstream secrets stay in the gateway — not on every laptop.
[ FAQ ]
Common questions
What does the DevExpress MCP server do?
DevExpress exposes component documentation access, devexpress development assistance, ui toolkit guidance to MCP-compatible AI clients. Bifrost connects to it as an upstream MCP client and exposes approved tools through one governed /mcp endpoint.
How does DevExpress authenticate when used with Bifrost?
DevExpress uses None or DevExpress credentials as documented. Store credentials in Bifrost's environment or credential configuration so they stay at the gateway instead of being copied into every AI client.
Can Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Claude Code use DevExpress through Bifrost?
Yes. After registering DevExpress in Bifrost, point any HTTP MCP-compatible client at the Bifrost /mcp endpoint and authenticate with a virtual key. The client sees only the tools allowed for that key.
