What you can do with Formstack
Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.
Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Formstack API rate limits
- 14,400 requests per day
Limits vary by plan
These are the limits Formstack documents, not ones LiveContext measured. They can change and often depend on your plan, so check the Formstack documentation for current values.
Use Formstack from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex
Connect Formstack in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Formstack operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.
claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"
[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"{
"mcpServers": {
"livecontext": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
"headers": {
"X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}How to connect Formstack
- Create your workspace
Sign up free. Nothing to install.
- Connect Formstack once
Add your Formstack connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.
- Describe the job in chat
The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
