Connect Chanty MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Chanty 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.
Standardize Chanty tools in VS Code
Commit your `mcp.json` to the repo to ensure every developer has the same Chanty tools available. It removes configuration drift across your team. Everyone gets the same access to `list_conversations` and `get_profile` automatically. It turns your chat integration into a shared team asset.
Automate team communication in VS Code
Use `send_message` to report deployment status or build errors straight into the team channel. Your chat becomes a real-time log of your repository health. It reduces the noise and keeps the focus on the code. Everyone sees the same updates in the same place.
Manage Chanty history from VS Code
Clean up old project threads using `delete_conversation` without leaving the IDE. It keeps your workspace tidy and focused on current tasks. Use `list_members` to check team structure when you need to assign a task. The tools integrate directly into your Copilot Chat flow.
