Deploy Chargify MCP Server across the team

Commit your configuration to the repo via `.vscode/mcp.json` so every developer has the same tools. This ensures your team can use `list_subscriptions` to check state strings consistently. It brings operational visibility to the code editor. Everyone sees the same billing flags and churn status for any given customer.

Audit Chargify billing in VS Code Copilot

Use `get_subscription_details` to inspect MRR and billing cycles without leaving the IDE. It helps developers verify if their changes impact active account logic. You can also use `list_customers` to verify that your record matching works correctly. It keeps the team focused on the actual data structures.

Automate Chargify updates in VS Code Copilot

Trigger plan upgrades or subscription holds directly through the chat. Tools like `update_subscription_product` allow for quick adjustments during development cycles. It removes the friction of jumping to a separate admin panel. You get the exact response from the billing engine, allowing you to debug your logic in real-time.

Setup guide

Set up Chargify 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 Chargify 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.

Verify the connection

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