Use Forkmate in Continue

Continue supports MCP servers in agent mode. Its docs don’t document an OAuth sign-in for remote servers, so Forkmate connects through the mcp-remote bridge.

Needs a bridge. Continue’s docs show API keys, not OAuth, for remote servers. mcp-remote handles the Forkmate sign-in for it; it needs Node.js.

No Forkmate account yet? Create one free first. It takes under a minute, and Continue sends you there on first connect anyway.

Set up Forkmate in Continue

https://mcp.forkmate.ai/

Forkmate’s server URL. Streamable HTTP, OAuth sign-in, no API key.

  1. 1

    Add the server

    Add the block below to ~/.continue/config.yaml under mcpServers.

  2. 2

    Sign in to Forkmate once

    mcp-remote opens a Forkmate sign-in in your browser. Sign in (or create your free account) and approve access. That one-time OAuth step connects it to your diary and nobody else’s.

  3. 3

    Log your first meal

    In Continue (agent mode), say “I had two eggs and toast for breakfast.” It logs the meal with calories and macros to your Forkmate diary.

~/.continue/config.yaml

mcpServers:
  - name: Forkmate
    command: npx
    args:
      - "-y"
      - "mcp-remote"
      - "https://mcp.forkmate.ai/"

mcp-remote is an open-source proxy that runs on your computer, needs Node.js 18 or later, opens the Forkmate sign-in in your browser, and stores the token in ~/.mcp-auth.

What you need

  • A free Forkmate account (sign up). There is no paid plan.
  • MCP tools work in Continue’s agent mode only.
  • Node.js 18 or later for the bridge.

Checked September 30, 2026 against the vendor’s documentation: Continue docs: MCP. Continue changes its menus often; if yours looks different, trust what it shows.

What to say first

Once it’s connected, talk to Continue the way you’d tell a friend:

I had two eggs and toast for breakfast.

It logs the meal with calories, protein, carbs and fat to your diary at app.forkmate.ai. Then try:

  • How many calories have I had today?
  • Make the toast two slices.
  • What did I eat this week?
