Form.io SDK Skills

Reference for @formio/js, @formio/js/utils, and the helpers exposed only by @formio/core. Covers SDK bootstrap, authentication, form / submission / project / role / file CRUD, plugin lifecycle, VanillaJS rendering, and the full Utils surface (Evaluator, traversal, conditions, logic actions, JSONLogic, mask, sanitize, date, DOM, i18n, fastCloneDeep, override, unwind).

Preflight — the Form.io MCP server

Before your first Form.io tool call, check that the Form.io MCP tools are available to you — form_list, form_create, project_import, project_set.

If they are missing, stop and connect the server before doing anything else. Load the formio-mcp-setup skill and follow it; it writes the MCP configuration for every client and tells the user how to reload. If that skill is not installed either, tell the user:

I have no Form.io tools, so the Form.io MCP server isn't connected. Run npx skills add formio/ai to get the setup skill, or add the server to your agent's MCP configuration as npx -y @formio/mcp.

Do not work around missing tools by making direct HTTP requests against a Form.io deployment, and do not write code that does. This library documents the whole Form.io REST surface, which makes hand-rolling requests tempting and wrong — it bypasses the guardrails the tools enforce and can write to a live deployment unreviewed. Stop and report what is blocking instead.

Imports

Prefer the renderer-extended SDK first; fall back to @formio/core only when a surface is not re-exported by @formio/js or @formio/js/utils:
