How to Use the AppGallery Connect MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do we find the correct application ID?

Your agent runs listapps to retrieve all applications associated with your account. It then passes that ID to tools like getappinfo for detailed metadata.

Give your VS Code Copilot team direct access to AppGallery Connect metrics and releases.

Track store performance in VS Code Copilot

Tracking store performance directly from your editor is the core capability of this integration. Your AI client pulls `get_install_stats` and `get_download_stats` directly into the editor chat. Nobody has to hunt for credentials to check yesterday's numbers. You just specify a YYYYMMDD date range. The agent grabs the data and can even pull `get_rating_info` to show if those new installs are resulting in positive store reviews.

Automate your team's submission process

Automating your team's submission process is the main purpose of this server. Getting an update out the door involves too many manual steps. This MCP Server allows any developer on the project to request an asset link via `get_upload_url` for their compiled APKs. Once the file goes up, the agent fires `submit_for_review` to push the build to Huawei. The rest of the team can check the progress later by running `get_submission_status`.

Manage user feedback collaboratively

Managing user feedback collaboratively is what this integration handles. Support tickets often contain crucial debugging context. Copilot reads the latest public feedback using `get_comments` so your engineers see exactly what users are complaining about. When someone fixes the bug, they can draft a quick response. The agent executes `reply_to_comment` to update the user, keeping the whole communication loop inside your shared workspace.

Setup guide

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

.vscode/mcp.json

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

Common questions about AppGallery Connect MCP in VS Code Copilot

Add the Vinkius endpoint to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Commit this to your repository so the entire engineering team gets immediate access.

Yes, provided the metadata is complete. The agent triggers the review submission tool after you upload at least one valid binary.

Your agent runs `list_apps` to retrieve all applications associated with your account. It then passes that ID to tools like `get_app_info` for detailed metadata.

It works perfectly. You must switch Copilot Chat to Agent mode so it can actively call the store tools rather than just answering questions.

Pre-signed upload URLs and user review text are never stored. Vinkius manages the external MCP connection through a completely ephemeral sandbox that gets destroyed the moment your command finishes.
