Give your AI agent eyes on your forms (MCP tutorial)

Tutorial: mint a Formitor MCP token and connect Claude or any MCP-capable agent, so you can ask 'what's broken across my sites?' straight from your terminal.


July 18, 2026 · Formitor

Formitor ships an MCP server: a read-only API your AI agent can query about your monitoring. Once connected, “anything broken across my sites?” becomes a question you ask Claude instead of a dashboard you open.

The whole setup in under forty seconds:

Step 1: Open AI access

In the dashboard sidebar, under Resources, click AI access.

Step 2: Generate a token

The modal shows your MCP endpoint and a token generator. Give the token a label naming the agent that will use it (so you can revoke exactly that one later), and click Generate token.

Step 3: Copy the command

The token is shown once. Below it, a ready-made command connects Claude Code in one paste:

Generated token with the claude mcp add command

claude mcp add --transport http formitor <your-endpoint> \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer <your-token>"

Any other MCP-capable agent works the same way: HTTP transport, bearer token.

What the agent can do

Four read-only tools, scoped to your account:

  • list_sites: every site with status
  • whats_broken: failing forms with error details
  • site_status: one site, in depth
  • recent_notifications: the latest alerts

Read-only is deliberate: the agent can diagnose, never mutate. Revoke any token anytime from the same modal.

Why bother

Morning standup: “Claude, anything broken on client sites overnight?” beats opening five tabs. And an agent that reads your monitoring can cross-reference it while it fixes code: “the contact form on staging fails since yesterday’s deploy, and here’s the diff that did it.”
