How to Use the Brushfire MCP in VS Code Copilot
Deploy Brushfire across your engineering team using the VS Code Copilot MCP server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Brushfire MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Brushfire 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.
Unified event management in VS Code Copilot
Commit your server config to the repo so everyone on your team has the same tools. Use `list_events` to keep everyone aligned on current project timelines. Query your order history with `list_orders` to debug issues across the team. Everyone sees the same data returned by the API.
Team-wide attendee access in VS Code Copilot
Stop sharing admin credentials. Grant your team the ability to run `list_attendees` and `get_attendee` through their own authenticated sessions. Use `update_attendee` to keep registration details consistent across all developer machines. The agent handles the updates while you maintain a clean repo.
Standardized check-in tools for VS Code Copilot
Ensure your check-in logic is consistent by using the same tools across the org. Trigger `check_in_attendee` within the editor to verify status updates. Check ticket availability with `list_ticket_types` to ensure your team is building against the correct registration options.
