communitystreamable_httphealthy

Enable AI agents to work reliably - giving them secure access to structured data, tools to take action, and the context needed to make smart decisions.


01Configuration
{ "mcpServers": { "monday": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@mondaydotcomorg/monday-api-mcp@latest" ] } } }

Add this to .vscode/mcp.json. Generated from the captured install method (npx); the mcpServers shape is shared across Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and VS Code.


02Steps
  1. Make sure VS Code is installed and up to date.
  2. Open .vscode/mcp.json and add the block above (merge into any existing mcpServers).
  3. Provide any required API keys/credentials as environment variables.
  4. Restart VS Code and confirm monday.com’s tools appear.
