How to Use the Canix ERP MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do I configure Canix ERP tools for my team in VS Code Copilot?

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your project's root directory. Add the Canix ERP server configuration there and commit the file to your repository. Every team member with the project will get the tools automatically.

Q: What if I only want the tools for a single project?

That's exactly what the .vscode/mcp.json file is for. By placing the configuration in your project's .vscode directory, the tools will only be active when you have that project open in VS Code.

Standard Tools for the Team

Add this MCP Server to your project's `.vscode/mcp.json` file and commit it. Now, every developer on your team gets the same set of tools for interacting with Canix ERP, right inside Copilot Chat. This ends the "it works on my machine" problem for Canix integrations. Everyone can use `list_inventory_packages` or `get_sales_order` in the exact same way, ensuring consistency across your codebase.

Query Canix in Agent Mode

Switch Copilot Chat to Agent mode and start asking questions about your operations. You can ask it to `list_plant_batches` and summarize the results, or check the details of a specific plant with `get_plant_details`. The answers appear right in your side panel. It's perfect for getting quick context without having to log into another system or run a cURL command. Your agent just handles it.

Your Canix ERP MCP Server

When you're building features that depend on Canix data, you need real data. Use Copilot to fetch a live sales order with `get_sales_order` or a non-cannabis product with `get_non_cannabis_product`. Copilot can then use that real object to help you write functions, build UI components, or draft tests. This MCP setup makes your ERP a direct part of your development workflow in VS Code.

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.

Yes. In the Copilot Chat panel, switch to agent mode and simply ask it to list the sales orders. It will use the `list_sales_orders` tool to fetch the data directly from Canix.

It does. You can ask something like, "get details for plant ID 12345 from Canix." Copilot will use the `get_plant_details` tool and show you the result.

That's exactly what the `.vscode/mcp.json` file is for. By placing the configuration in your project's `.vscode` directory, the tools will only be active when you have that project open in VS Code.
