Share Assembled configuration across your team in VS Code Copilot.

The `list_teams` tool lets VS Code Copilot query your support structure directly during development. By committing the server config to your repo, every developer on your team can access these tools instantly. This shared MCP environment means anyone can run `list_users` to verify user IDs without asking the operations team for exports. It keeps your engineering team aligned on the actual support taxonomy.

Build internal scheduling tools with VS Code Copilot.

The `list_schedules` tool pulls raw shift data straight into your VS Code Copilot chat window. Your team can generate backend sync scripts that update external calendars based on actual shift assignments. Using `list_forecasts` alongside your code generator lets you write automated alerting systems. Your scripts can flag when projected ticket volumes exceed scheduled capacity.

Monitor live agent states using this MCP Server.

The `list_agent_states` tool gives your development team real-time visibility into support operations. You can build status-tracking microservices by letting Copilot write the parsing logic for active agent states. Running `get_account_check` verifies that your team-wide API tokens are active and valid. This quick check prevents authentication errors from breaking your local integration tests.

Setup guide

Set up Assembled 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 Assembled 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.
