No preview-transform tool in Palantir MCP?

When I use Continue in the Foundry web IDE, I see the models properly use the transform preview as shown in the docs here: https://www.palantir.com/docs/foundry/palantir-mcp/overview/#build-and-iterate-on-python-transforms

However, I noticed that my local Claude Code runs have more issues and it’s because it never previews the code it writes. Claude Code said it didn’t have the tool, and sure enough, the official docs don’t list it either: https://www.palantir.com/docs/foundry/palantir-mcp/available-tools/

Anyone know how to give CC or Codex access to the preview-transform tool like Continue does?

Hi there, If you go to VS Code, download the Palantir extension, you’ll be able to preview as well as launch builds directly from VS Code !

Code Repository > Work Locally > Follow steps to setup on VSCode.

Highly recommend you give it a try. You can integrate Claude Code directly in your VS Code - which can be integrated with your Foundry MCP.

Yes, I’m able to use Preview with the Palantir extension for VS Code.

However, my Claude Code set up via MCP does not have the ability to preview transforms since the preview tool doesn’t appear to be in the MCP.

I’m trying to set up CC to autonomously write and review its PRs, so I don’t have to manually preview and check the outputs. Have an idea on how I can do that? Thanks.
