How to Use the Axonaut MCP in VS Code Copilot
Give your entire engineering team access to Axonaut API data directly inside VS Code Copilot.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Axonaut MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Axonaut to VS Code Copilot and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Query Axonaut CRM data inside VS Code
Developers hate switching tabs to check customer IDs. Copilot uses `list_companies` and `get_company` to fetch client records right in the IDE sidebar. Finding specific stakeholders works the exact same way. The agent runs `list_contacts` to pull names and roles, giving you the context you need to debug a customer-specific issue.
Inspect live billing and order payloads
Building billing integrations requires seeing actual transaction data. Your AI client triggers `list_invoices` and `list_expenses` to retrieve real financial records for testing. Quote and order workflows become much easier to develop. This MCP Server exposes `list_quotations` and `list_orders` so you can verify the exact state of a transaction without opening a browser.
Sync development tasks with project boards
You can link your code commits to business deliverables. Copilot reads your active timelines using `list_projects` and surfaces the current priorities. Creating follow-up items happens without leaving the editor. The agent executes `create_task` to log a bug, then follows up with `list_tasks` to ensure it hit the board.
