## MCP tools (8)

### `instant_provision` (~125 tokens)

Create a working form endpoint instantly for any email — no account needed. The owner claims it later via the claim_url. Returns the endpoint URL, claim_url, a ready-to-paste html_snippet, a curl_example, and a scoped api_key. This server remembers that key, so every other tool here (list_forms, get_submissions, configure_autoresponse, ...) works immediately afterwards without any human setup.

Input parameters:

- `email` (string, required): Email address of the future form owner (receives submission notifications)
- `form_name` (string): Optional name for the form

### `create_form` (~61 tokens)

Create a new form in the authenticated FormsList account. Requires an API key — call instant_provision first, or set FORMSLIST_API_KEY.

Input parameters:

- `description` (string): Optional description of the form
- `name` (string, required): Name of the form

### `list_forms` (~37 tokens)

List all forms in the authenticated FormsList account. Requires an API key — call instant_provision first, or set FORMSLIST_API_KEY.

### `get_form` (~52 tokens)

Get details of a single form (settings, endpoint, submission counts). Requires an API key — call instant_provision first, or set FORMSLIST_API_KEY.

Input parameters:

- `form_id` (string, required): The form ID

### `get_submissions` (~72 tokens)

Get submissions for a form, paginated. Requires an API key — call instant_provision first, or set FORMSLIST_API_KEY.

Input parameters:

- `form_id` (string, required): The form ID
- `page` (integer): Page number (default 1)
- `per_page` (integer): Results per page

### `configure_autoresponse` (~151 tokens)

Enable, disable, or configure the auto-response email sent to people who submit a form. Requires an API key — call instant_provision first, or set FORMSLIST_API_KEY. Auto-responses are a paid-plan feature: if the account's plan does not include them, the result contains the upgrade message and upgrade_url to relay to the user.

Input parameters:

- `body_html` (string): HTML body of the auto-response email
- `enabled` (boolean, required): Whether the auto-response email is enabled
- `form_id` (string, required): The form ID
- `from_name` (string): Sender display name for the auto-response email
- `subject` (string): Subject line of the auto-response email

### `update_form` (~203 tokens)

Update a form's settings: name, notification recipients, active state, and server-side field validation. Requires an API key (call instant_provision first, or set FORMSLIST_API_KEY). Paid-plan fields (redirect_url, allowed_domains) return an upgrade message and upgrade_url to relay to the user instead of failing.

Input parameters:

- `allowed_domains` (array): PAID: origins allowed to post
- `email_notifications` (boolean): Turn submission emails on or off
- `form_id` (string, required): The form ID
- `is_active` (boolean): false makes the endpoint return 404
- `name` (string): New display name
- `notification_emails` (array): Who receives each submission by email. An ARRAY, e.g. ["owner@site.com"]
- `redirect_url` (string): PAID: where visitors land after submitting
- `validation_rules`: Server-side validation; failing submissions get 422 with per-field errors. null clears.

### `get_embed_snippet` (~113 tokens)

Build a ready-to-paste HTML form snippet (plus an AJAX fetch example) that posts to a FormsList endpoint. Pure local generation — no API key, no network. Pass either the full endpoint URL (https://formslist.com/f/<hash>) or just the form hash.

Input parameters:

- `endpoint_or_hash` (string, required): Full FormsList endpoint URL (…/f/<hash>) or just the form hash
- `fields` (array): Form field names to include (default: name, email, message)
