MCP support
Exposes 19 tools to MCP clients for managing Google Forms, including form creation and editing, question operations, and response reading.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
uvx mcp-google-formsGOOGLE_FORMS_MCP_DIROverride the directory where OAuth credentials.json and token.json are stored (default: ~/.config/google-forms-mcp).Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
