What is the OpnForm MCP Server?
Connect your OpnForm account to any AI agent and take full control of your form orchestration and data collection through natural conversation. OpnForm is a modern, AI-first, open-source form builder that allows you to create professional forms in seconds.
What you can do
- Form & Workspace Orchestration — List all managed workspaces and forms programmatically to keep your data collection infrastructure always synchronized.
- Dynamic Form Generation — Create new forms and update existing fields directly from the AI interface to rapidly deploy surveys or lead magnets.
- Submission Intelligence — Retrieve and analyze form responses in real-time via natural language to extract insights without manual exporting.
- Lifecycle Management — Delete stale forms and manage workspace metadata using simple AI commands.
- Account Visibility — Access your profile and API token capabilities to ensure your automation has the correct permissions.
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your OpnForm Personal Access Token from your dashboard settings
3. Start managing your forms and data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more manual dashboard navigation for simple status checks. Your AI acts as a dedicated form operations lead or data coordinator.
Who is this for?
- Marketing Teams — quickly create lead capture forms and monitor submission volume without switching apps.
- Product Managers — automate the collection of user feedback and analyze responses via natural conversation.
- Developers — integrate real-time form management and data ingestion directly within the chat.

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically create a new form by describing it?
Yes! Use the create_form tool. Provide a title and optional fields, and your agent will generate the form in your workspace instantly. You can then refine it via natural language.
How do I find my OpnForm Personal Access Token?
Log in to OpnForm, navigate to Settings > API Keys, and click 'Create a new token'. Copy the generated key immediately as it will only be shown once.
Does it support listing all submissions?
Yes, use the list_submissions tool with your Form ID. The AI can then help you search, filter, or summarize the results directly in the chat.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
