Shared MCP Server config for VS Code Copilot

Commit your configuration to the repo so everyone on your team has the same tools. Using `list_players` and `get_player` becomes a team-wide standard. It removes the friction of manual setup for new developers. Everyone gets identical context from your signage platform the moment they clone the project.

Manage content assets with VS Code Copilot

The `list_medias` tool gives your whole team visibility into what is ready for production. No more hunting for file names in the web interface. Use `list_templates` to ensure every developer uses the correct signage layouts. It keeps your team's output consistent across the entire project.

Enterprise-ready user auditing in VS Code

Call `list_users` to generate reports on who is managing your signage. It is a quick way to keep your team's access organized and documented. VS Code Copilot can process this data to help you maintain security standards. It makes platform auditing part of your daily development cycle.

Setup guide

Set up 4YouSee MCP in VS Code Copilot

Prerequisites

VS Code 1.99 or later with GitHub Copilot extension
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and run "MCP: Add Server". Select HTTP (Streamable) as the server type. VS Code will create .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace.
2

Add the 4YouSee MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into your .vscode/mcp.json. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Switch to Agent mode

Open Copilot Chat (Cmd+Shift+I / Ctrl+Shift+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode — they do not appear in Edit or Ask modes.
4

Verify the connection

In the Copilot Chat input, type # to list available tools. You should see the 4YouSee tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent 4YouSee transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.
