Can I check-in an attendee using the agent?

Yes! Use the `check_in_attendee` tool with the Attendee ID. Your agent will update the status in Brushfire instantly to mark the guest as present.

How do I see the list of all attendees for my event?

Simply ask the agent to `list_attendees` and provide the Event ID. It will retrieve all the registered guests, including names and statuses, from your Brushfire account.

Does the integration allow updating attendee details?

Yes. Use the `update_attendee` action and provide the Attendee ID along with the new name or email. The information will be synchronized with Brushfire immediately.

Brushfire + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating Brushfire 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.
