AI agents

new

Connect Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other AI agents to Devicons over MCP, a free JSON API, a CLI, or a skill. No API key needed.

Devicons is built for AI coding agents as well as people. An agent can search a multitude of developer logos, fetch the SVG, and write the React, Vue, or Svelte import for you, without guessing file names or URLs. Every surface is free, read-only, and needs no API key.

The MCP server is the best fit for chat and coding agents: the agent calls search_icons, then get_icon for the SVG and ready-to-paste code. The API and CLI expose the same data for everything else.

Quick start

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http devicons https://devicons.io/api/mcp

Then ask: “Add the PostgreSQL and Redis logos to the architecture diagram” or “Use the Devicons React component for the Vercel logo in the footer.”

Any other tool:

curl "https://devicons.io/api/v1/search?q=postgres&limit=3"
npx devicons add react vue --out ./src/icons
