About Forj MCP Server
Connect your Forj (formerly Mobilize) account to any AI agent to automate your community management and member engagement through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Forj provides a powerful platform for organizing professional communities into groups, tracking member activity, and facilitating seamless synchronization with external CRMs. This MCP server enables you to manage your groups, search for members, and oversee community interactions directly through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Forj tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 12 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
