Main modules: - [Site News](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-news) - [Blog](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-blog) - [Forum](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-forum) - [Online Store](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-shop) - [Article Catalog](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-publ) - [File Catalog](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-load) - [Site Catalog](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-dir) - [Photo Albums](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-photo) - [Video](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-video) - [FAQ](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-faq) - [Ad Board](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-board) - [Guestbook](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-guests) - [Polls](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-polls) - [Mini-chat](https://www.ucoz.ru/help/module-mchat) ## uCoz AI tools uCoz provides AI tools for working with templates, generating and editing content, automating site management, and connecting external AI agents. Main AI sections: - [AI Code](https://www.ucoz.com/ai/) - [AI content generation](https://www.ucoz.com/ai/content) - [uCoz MCP for AI agents](https://www.ucoz.com/ai/mcp) - [MCP skills catalog](https://www.ucoz.com/ai/skills) ### AI Code AI Code is an AI assistant for creating and editing HTML, CSS, and JavaScript in uCoz templates. It takes into account template structure, system variables, conditions, and the specifics of uCoz modules. AI Code can: - find the right section of code in a template; - apply changes directly in the editor; - make targeted edits; - create new blocks; - create full landing pages; - change HTML, CSS, and JavaScript; - analyze template structure; - work with module templates, global blocks, stylesheets, and personal pages. AI Code supports two modes: - **Autopilot** — automatic changes based on the request; - **Manual mode** — review proposed changes and apply or discard them. AI Code also works with visual references. A user can upload an image or screenshot from a computer, paste it from the clipboard, drag it into the interface, or choose it through the file manager. AI Code can analyze the style and composition of an image, create similar blocks, fix visual issues, and use uploaded images in sliders, banners, and other site elements. Create a backup before substantial template changes. In manual mode, changes can be reviewed before they are applied. AI Code works inside the uCoz control panel. It is different from MCP: MCP connects external AI agents and IDEs to the site through the Model Context Protocol. ### AI content generation AI content generation helps create new materials, update existing publications, prepare SEO data, and add images. Supported modules: - **Site News** — creating news, updating existing materials, and SEO optimization. - **Blog** — automatic article generation from keywords and topics, SEO optimization, and image selection. - **Article Catalog** — creating and updating articles, and optimizing materials for SEO. - **File Catalog** — creating and updating file descriptions, and SEO optimization. - **Ad Board** — creating and updating sales copy for listings, and SEO optimization. AI can automatically create and edit: - titles; - body text; - descriptions; - tags; - SEO titles and meta descriptions; - covers and illustrations; - other material fields. Quick actions are available: - rephrasing text; - shortening; - expanding; - fixing grammar; - updating individual parts of a material; - undoing changes. Web search mode helps use current data from open sources when preparing news and analytical materials. You can set a personal style for text and image generation with custom instructions. This keeps a consistent brand tone, publication format, and editorial requirements. AI helps prepare a material, but the user should check facts, style, images, SEO data, and the final version before publishing. ### uCoz MCP [uCoz MCP](https://www.ucoz.com/ai/mcp) connects uCoz sites to external AI agents and IDEs that support the Model Context Protocol. MCP lets you manage a site through a regular chat in Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, and other MCP clients. Through MCP, an AI agent can work with the following areas: #### Pages and templates - creating and editing pages; - creating and changing templates; - managing menus; - working with global blocks; - setting up mail forms; - checking code; - creating backups; - applying changes safely. #### Site content MCP supports work with: - site news; - the blog; - the article catalog; - the file catalog; - the site catalog; - the ad board; - photo albums; - video; - FAQ; - the forum; - the guestbook; - mini-chat; - polls; - categories; - comments. An AI agent can create, update, find, sort, and analyze site materials. #### Online store MCP lets you manage: - categories; - products; - images; - product variants; - prices; - stock; - the cart; - orders; - order statuses; - currencies; - balance; - product reviews. #### Users and access An AI agent can: - view users and profiles; - work with groups; - manage ranks; - view and change access rights; - change a user's login, password, and group with confirmation. #### Site files MCP supports file operations over FTP: - browsing files and folders; - reading files; - uploading files; - creating folders; - renaming resources; - deleting files; - getting public paths; - managing FTP access. #### Modules and settings An AI agent can: - view the module list; - check module status; - install and remove modules; - enable modules; - configure access through uAPI; - check and manage site quarantine. #### Plans and subscriptions MCP supports work with: - pricing plans; - subscribers; - trial periods; - access checks; - subscription renewals; - pausing subscriptions; - canceling subscriptions; - payments; - refunds. #### Whole-site design The site design management tool lets you: - check the site framework against uCoz rules; - create templates; - create global blocks; - create informers; - create standard pages; - update the design of the whole site; - check the project before publishing; - manage saving and publishing changes. #### AI skills MCP can select, install, and run ready-made skills for specific tasks: creating landing pages, setting up a site, working with an online store, translating content, and editing design. #### API reference MCP can look up methods, parameters, and schemas in the official uAPI documentation and load the data needed to run requests accurately. uCoz MCP can be connected in two ways: - through the npm package `ucoz-mcp`; - through the HTTP server `https://ucoz.com/mcp`. A connection may require a uAPI token, the site URL, and FTP access, depending on the tools in use. AI Code works inside the uCoz control panel, while MCP is used in external IDEs and AI agents. Access is controlled with a uAPI token and the permissions assigned to the site. Do not publish tokens, passwords, or FTP credentials in code, chats, or public repositories. Before applying important changes, create backups and check the result. ## MCP skills MCP skills are ready-made scenarios for AI agents. They contain instructions and proven action sequences for specific tasks on uCoz sites. The catalog is intended for Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, and other AI tools that support MCP and skills. ### uCoz Landing Skill [Official skill](https://www.ucoz.com/ai/skills/ucoz-landing-skill) Creates and edits landing pages through MCP.
