Team-Wide Affiliate Tooling in VS Code Copilot

Standardize how your development team interacts with your marketing data. By committing an MCP config to your repo, every developer using VS Code Copilot gets immediate access to tools like `list_merchant_transactions`. Your team can debug payment pipelines or audit campaign tracking without sharing raw API keys. The agent safely pulls the transaction logs they need using `get_transaction_details`.

Audit Program Performance in Chat

Stop writing throwaway scripts to check affiliate revenue totals. Your agent can query `get_performance_summary` inside the chat panel to get instant totals for any time frame. It can then cross-reference these numbers with merchant profiles using `get_merchant_details`. This gives your engineering team quick answers during sprint planning or debugging sessions.

Manage Merchant Networks Programmatically

Scaling your affiliate network requires constant monitoring. This MCP server allows your agent to fetch active partner details using `list_merchant_affiliates` directly inside your workspace. You can immediately use these lists to update configuration files or flag low-performing accounts. The tool `list_affiliate_merchants` helps you discover new partners without leaving the editor context.

Setup guide

Set up Commission Factory 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.

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.
