Can I check the value of a sales opportunity using the agent?

Yes! Use the `get_opportunity_details` tool with the Opportunity ID. Your agent will fetch the detailed metadata, which includes the value amount and currency from Capsule CRM.

How do I list all the people in my CRM?

Simply ask the agent to `list_contacts`. It will retrieve the list of all parties (people and organizations) from your Capsule account, including their names and primary details.

Does the integration allow creating a new task?

Yes. Use the `create_task` action and provide the description. You can also optionally specify a due date. The task will be added to your Capsule account instantly.

Capsule CRM + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating Capsule CRM 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.
