Can my AI agent rewrite my app description using the keyword suggestions?

Yes. This is the perfect use case. First, ask the agent to fetch keyword suggestions and volume for your App ID. Then, in the same prompt, command the LLM to rewrite your 'App Store description' naturally injecting the top 5 high-KEI keywords. You get a fully optimized, data-backed description in one go.

How do I check a competitor’s downloads secretly?

Just tell the agent to 'Get download estimates' and provide the target app ID (either Google package name or Apple ID). The agent uses AppTweak's proprietary machine learning algorithms to return a calculated daily or monthly download figure for that specific competitor without alerting them.

Are keyword volumes valid for non-US countries?

Yes. Most AppTweak query tools require a `country` parameter. You can tell your agent to 'Check keyword rank in Brazil (br)' or 'France (fr)'. The AI automatically routes the localization tag so you get data isolated precisely for your target demographic.

AppTweak + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating AppTweak MCP Server with VS Code Copilot.

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
