Can I start a security test for a specific application from the agent?

Yes! Use the `start_test` action with your application's token. Your agent will trigger the penetration test in your Beagle Security account immediately.

How do I check if a running security test has finished?

Simply ask the agent to `get_test_status` with the Test ID. It will return the current phase of the test and its completion status.

Does the integration show me the details of found vulnerabilities?

Yes. Once a test is finished, you can use `get_vulnerabilities` or `get_test_results` to retrieve a list of findings, including severity and descriptions.

Beagle Security + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating Beagle Security 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.
