Share Atlas ticket context across VS Code Copilot

This MCP server lets VS Code Copilot use `get_ticket` to pull specific Atlas customer complaints straight into your chat sidebar. It helps your team diagnose failures without leaving the editor. When tracking down systemic failures in VS Code Copilot, the team can run `list_tickets` to spot trends in Atlas. Having this data inside the editor keeps everyone focused on shipping the right fix.

Ground your Copilot suggestions in actual user data

The `get_customer` tool lets your team inspect active Atlas user configurations directly inside VS Code Copilot. It ensures your database queries match what your actual users have configured. If you are building admin tools in VS Code Copilot, running `list_customers` helps you understand the exact Atlas fields your interface needs to support. Copilot then writes accurate, production-ready code using the MCP standard.

Reference help documentation during development

The `list_articles` tool allows Copilot to query your Atlas help center to verify how a feature is documented. It ensures your code changes align with published user guides. You can also search your Atlas team directory with `list_users` to see who handles specific components in VS Code Copilot. Assigning technical debt to the right engineer takes seconds.

Setup guide

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

.vscode/mcp.json

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