Set up LM Studio
Run local LLMs with MCP tool support. Add Agentcy so your local models can access marketing data — combining private inference with live analytics.
- 01
Sign up at app.goagentcy.com and create an API key
- 02
Open LM Studio (v0.3.17+ required — current is v0.4.10)
- 03
Click the Program tab in the right-hand sidebar
- 04
Click Install → Edit mcp.json to open the in-app editor
- 05
Paste the config snippet below, replacing YOUR_AGENTCY_API_KEY with your actual key
- 06
Save (Cmd+S / Ctrl+S) — LM Studio auto-reloads, no restart needed
- 07
Toggle the agentcy server on in the Program panel
path: ~/.lmstudio/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"agentcy": {
"url": "https://data.goagentcy.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_AGENTCY_API_KEY"
}
}
}
}LM Studio uses the standard mcpServers + url + headers format — no "type" field required. Remote MCP support requires v0.3.17+ (June 2025). v0.4.10 (April 9, 2026) added OAuth support for MCP servers — additive only, doesn’t affect Bearer-token setups like Agentcy. Free desktop app, no plan gating. Heads-up: MCP servers designed for frontier cloud models may use excessive tokens that overwhelm small local models — stick to ~14B+ models for reliable Agentcy tool use.
