Run `calculate_bollinger_bands` in VS Code Copilot

The `calculate_bollinger_bands` tool gives your development team instant access to deterministic financial math inside their chat panel. It accepts raw numeric arrays and returns precise Upper, Middle, and Lower bands. By committing this setup to your repository, every developer on the team can analyze pricing data without installing local math packages.

Standardize technical analysis with this MCP Server

The `calculate_bollinger_bands` tool ensures everyone on your engineering team calculates standard deviations the exact same way. It eliminates discrepancies caused by different math libraries or custom scripts. Your agent reads the codebase, passes arrays to the engine, and drops the exact bands into your team's active files.

Validate financial algorithms during code reviews

The `calculate_bollinger_bands` tool verifies your trading algorithms directly in the VS Code chat interface. You feed raw price arrays into the tool to double-check your code's outputs. It provides an instant, independent math check. This MCP tool reduces errors before you commit your code to production.

Setup guide

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

.vscode/mcp.json

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

Common questions about Bollinger Bands Engine MCP in VS Code Copilot

Create a shared .vscode/mcp.json file in your repository root and add the server configuration. VS Code Copilot will load the tool for every developer who opens the workspace.

Yes, your developers can specify period and stdDev parameters in the tool call. The engine recalculates the bands based on these inputs.

Writing manual standard deviation code often introduces edge-case bugs. This tool provides a deterministic, pre-tested engine that guarantees mathematical accuracy.

No, the calculations run on the Vinkius infrastructure. Your local environment does not need any math libraries or runtime dependencies.

Your data is sent over a secure, encrypted connection to an ephemeral V8 sandbox. It processes the calculations in memory and never saves your financial arrays to disk.
