How to Use the BattleMetrics MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: Can VS Code Copilot read BattleMetrics player counts?

Yes, it calls getserverplayercounthistory to fetch the raw population data. The agent then writes the data-fetching logic for your application based on those real responses.

Equip your entire engineering team with BattleMetrics API access directly inside VS Code Copilot using a single shared MCP Server configuration.

Automate ban syncs in VS Code Copilot

`list_bans` pulls your organization's recent server-level suspensions right into your IDE workspace. Your agent reviews the returned timestamps and expiry dates to help you write accurate database migration scripts. Verifying a specific penalty requires `get_ban`, which fetches the exact administrator who issued the action. Copilot uses this live evidence to generate unit tests for your internal admin dashboard.

Build server browsers with live data

`list_servers` retrieves paginated lists of game servers based on country and game type. You ask Copilot to build a grid layout, and it populates the mockups with actual IP addresses and current player counts. Pinpointing specific communities happens via `search_servers`, which applies minimum player count and rank range filters. Your MCP client sees how the complex filters behave and writes the matching GraphQL resolvers for your backend.

Player lookup via MCP Server

`list_players` executes cross-game searches to find matching usernames across the entire network. Copilot drops the returned EOS and Steam identifiers directly into your test fixtures. Deep dives into an individual's history start with `get_player_sessions`, extracting their exact join and leave events. The agent analyzes the session duration formats to write correct time-parsing utility functions.

Setup guide

Set up BattleMetrics 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 BattleMetrics 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.

Common questions about BattleMetrics MCP in VS Code Copilot

Commit a .vscode/mcp.json file to your Git repository containing the server details. Everyone who pulls the repo gets instant access to the exact same tools.

Yes, it calls `get_server_player_count_history` to fetch the raw population data. The agent then writes the data-fetching logic for your application based on those real responses.

Enterprise teams rely on shared context and standardized toolsets. Committing the configuration ensures your entire squad builds against the same live game data without passing around API keys.

Press Cmd+Shift+P and search for the MCP configuration command. This lets you query game servers across personal projects that lack a dedicated workspace file.

No, the V8 Isolate Sandbox ensures all data remains strictly between your local machine and the endpoint. Ban reasons and player session histories never touch external telemetry servers.
