create_collection

MCP tool from Bruno MCP Studio by Ostico

New collection. format: "yaml" (default) or "bru". Also registers it in the workspace, so listcollections and the Bruno app can see it — registerInWorkspace: false to skip that, workspacePath to pick the file

How to use it

Project documentation lists create_collection for the Bruno MCP Studio MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
