What is Canvas LMS MCP Server?

Canvas LMS MCP Server is a minimal Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides a bridge between AI systems (like Cursor) and the Canvas Learning Management System. It allows AI assistants to access educational data such as courses, assignments, grades, announcements, discussions, and more from a Canvas instance. The server is intended for students, instructors, and developers who want to query Canvas data through AI-powered tools.

How to use Canvas LMS MCP Server?

Install the server via uvx (recommended) or from source. Set the CANVAS_API_TOKEN and CANVAS_BASE_URL environment variables (the API token is obtained from Canvas account settings). Start the server with uv run src/canvas_lms_mcp/main.py or canvas-lms-mcp if installed as a tool. Then configure any MCP‑compatible client (e.g., Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf) with the JSON config specifying the command uvx and arguments ["canvas-lms-mcp"] plus the required environment variables.

Key features of Canvas LMS MCP Server

  • List enrolled courses and get course details, syllabus, modules, and module items
  • Retrieve assignments with optional submission status and grade weighting
  • Get course pages, submissions with grades, and announcements across courses
  • List and view discussion topics and full threads
  • Access calendar events with date filtering and planner items
