Marketer MCP tool names (breaking change)

We’ve updated several Marketer MCP tool names to meet MCP client limits (60-character max). This is a breaking change and any existing references to previous tool names will no longer work and must be updated.

Previously, longer names could be filtered out or rejected by MCP clients like Cursor, which could cause errors when referencing those tool names directly in prompts.

These updates ensure tools remain visible and can be reliably called by name across MCP environments.

What changed
Tool names were shortened while keeping their original meaning. Examples include:

Previous name

New name

get_allowed_components_by_placeholder

get_allow_comps_by_ph

move_component_within_placeholder

move_comp_within_ph

get_components_by_placeholder

get_components_by_ph

create_component_datasource

create_component_ds

search_component_datasources

search_component_ds

list_available_insertoptions

list_avail_insertopts

update_fields_on_content_item

update_fields_on_item

create_personalization_version

create_perso_version

get_personalization_versions_by_page

get_perso_ver_by_page

get_personalization_condition_templates

get_perso_cond_tmpls

get_personalization_condition_template_by_id

get_perso_cond_tmpl_by_id

Required action

  • Update all prompts, scripts, and integrations that reference these tools by name to use the new tool names.

  • Replace any hardcoded references to previous tool names.

  • No update required if tool names are not referenced explicitly.

Impact

  • Existing integrations or setups that reference these tools by their old names will fail until updated.

  • Prevents tools from being hidden due to name length limits.

  • Avoids errors when referencing tool names directly in prompts.

  • Ensures consistent tool calling across MCP clients.

Note: These tool name changes do not affect actual tool behavior.


Marketer MCP server URL update (non-breaking change)

We’ve also updated the Marketer MCP server URL to: https://marketer.sitecorecloud.io/mcp/marketer-mcp-prod. The previous URL: https://edge-platform.sitecorecloud.io/mcp/marketer-mcp-prod is still supported but is being deprecated.

There is no required action. Existing integrations using the previous URL will continue to work, but we recommend using the updated URL for new configurations.
