Installation

To use the MCP server, you'll need an API key. You can create and manage API keys in RenderForm > Settings > API Keys.

To run the server in a client like Claude Desktop, Cursor or Windsurf, add the following to your MCP config:

{
  "servers": {
    "renderform": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "renderform-mcp", "--api-key=RENDERFORM_API_KEY"]
    }
  }
}

Replace RENDERFORM_API_KEY with your API key.

For detailed setup guides, see:

• Cursor AI
• Visual Studio Code
• GitHub Copilot
• Claude Desktop
• Windsurf
