How to Use the Bland AI MCP in VS Code Copilot
Deploy and monitor Bland AI phone agents directly from VS Code Copilot.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Bland AI MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Bland AI 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.
Control live voice agents
`send_call` dispatches an automated voice agent to any phone number you specify. VS Code Copilot configures the agent's behavior and triggers the dialer over the MCP connection. When you need to kill a running call during testing, `end_call` forces an immediate disconnect. This keeps your development loop fast and prevents unnecessary toll charges.
Debug call flows inside VS Code Copilot
`get_call_details` retrieves the full transcript and execution variables for any completed call. VS Code Copilot reads these details to help you diagnose routing bugs or prompt errors. To inspect the raw voice quality, `get_recording` provides the exact MP3 or WAV links of the call. Your agent uses these links to verify audio performance.
Scale outbound telecom campaigns with an MCP Server
`send_batch` triggers hundreds of phone calls concurrently to scale your operations. Your agent manages the bulk queue, while VS Code Copilot tracks the dispatch progress. To monitor the campaign, `get_batch` retrieves real-time status updates and performance metrics for the active batch. You see exactly how many calls connected without leaving your editor.
