Install Plainfold data tools (all tools) in Continue
What you need first
- Continue, installed.
- Nothing else: the server runs on its publisher's machines and Continue connects to it.
Steps
- Open
~/.continue/config.yaml. On Windows it is%USERPROFILE%\.continue\config.yaml. - Add this entry. If the file already has
mcpServers, add only the item from- nameon.
mcpServers:
- name: "plainfold-mcp"
type: streamable-http
url: "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=plainfold/sam-gov-contract-opportunities,plainfold/business-entity-check,plainfold/company-hiring-signals,plainfold/sec-company-financials" - Save the file and restart Continue.
Check it worked
Ask Continue: List the tools of plainfold-mcp.
If it does not start
- 401 Unauthorized
- The endpoint wants a sign-in or a key. Sign in when Continue asks.
- Nothing changes after a restart
- The file is not valid YAML any more. Check that the entry is indented like the lines around it.
