Built for Astra
Theme settings with a defined scope
Astra keeps its Customizer values in a shared settings option. EMCP exposes curated keys, so you can inspect the current values and adjust supported design fields without replacing the whole option.
Keep block content independent
The spectra integration has its own tools and toggle. Selecting another standalone builder does not turn theme configuration into builder content, and changing a block does not require rewriting theme options.
Review site-wide changes
Astra must be the active theme. Unknown setting keys are skipped; inspect the returned schema before writing. Read back changed values and inspect the frontend. A theme change can affect many pages even when the request changes one setting.
Read the Astra tool reference for operations, permissions and limitations.

Does this include block editing?
Block editing has its own independent integration. Use the linked block-pack tools for page content and these tools for theme configuration.
Can it update every Customizer field?
