Shared team access to Chaport

Stop passing Chaport API keys around Slack. You can configure this live chat MCP Server once in your repository and distribute it to every developer automatically. By committing .vscode/mcp.json, the whole squad can run `get_my_agent_profile` or `list_chaport_operators`. Everyone gets the exact same live data context without individual setup.

Debug customer issues in VS Code Copilot

Support tickets often lack technical context. Developers can now pull the exact chat history where the user reported the bug. Just ask the chat panel to run `get_visitor_last_chat` for a specific user ID. The agent will follow up with `get_chat_history` so you see the exact error messages the customer pasted.

Interact with live visitors

You don't have to leave your IDE to ask a user a clarifying question. This MCP connection lets you code, debug, and communicate from one window. Run `get_visitor_details` to check their browser version. Once you spot the issue, have the agent execute `send_agent_message` to tell them a fix is deployed.

Setup guide

Set up Chaport MCP in VS Code Copilot

Prerequisites

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.
2

Add the Chaport MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into your .vscode/mcp.json. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Switch to Agent mode

Open Copilot Chat (Cmd+Shift+I / Ctrl+Shift+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode — they do not appear in Edit or Ask modes.
4

Verify the connection

In the Copilot Chat input, type # to list available tools. You should see the Chaport tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent Chaport transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "chaport-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }
}
