Shared AccelByte tools for VS Code Copilot

Commit your mcp.json to your repo so the whole team uses the same backend commands. Everyone gets access to `get_user_wallets` and `get_leaderboard` without manual setup. This ensures your team follows the same processes for backend management. You reduce configuration drift across all developer machines.

Enterprise-grade AccelByte management

Use the tools to perform admin tasks like `delete_client` or `update_user_status` securely. The integration respects your existing IAM permissions for the game backend. Your team can handle routine operations without leaving the editor. It keeps your engineering workflow focused and efficient.

Standardized game backend workflows

Build team-wide scripts that use `unlock_achievement` to reward players. You can define standard procedures that every developer executes the same way. This improves consistency across your development cycle. You spend less time explaining how to reach the API and more time building features.

Setup guide

Set up AccelByte 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 AccelByte 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 AccelByte tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent AccelByte transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.

.vscode/mcp.json

  "mcpServers": {
    "accelbyte-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
