VS Code Klarefi open_intake

How to: VS Code Klarefi open_intake

client:VS Code transport:streamable-http tool:open_intake

Add Klarefi to VS Code

  1. 01

    Open .vscode/mcp.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "servers": {
    "mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://www.klarefi.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

    Ask for something open_intake does. VS Code lists the server's tools on connect and calls open_intake itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Klarefi's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Requires agent mode. MCP: Open User Configuration puts the same block in every workspace. VS Code docs

Set these first

Klarefi will not start until these are set, so open_intake never becomes available.

  • KLAREFI_API_KEY
  • KLAREFI_API_BASE_URL

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
