Zed Clipform clipform_create_form

How to: Zed Clipform clipform_create_form

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:clipform_create_form

Add Clipform to Zed

  1. 01

    Open ~/.config/zed/settings.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "context_servers": {
    "mcp-server": {
      "url": "https://mcp.clipform.io"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Merge this into your existing settings object — do not replace the file. Zed docs

Set these first

Clipform will not start until these are set, so clipform_create_form never becomes available.

  • CLIPFORM_API_KEY
  • API_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.
