Verify active trust bank accounts in VS Code Copilot

The `get_firm_details` tool retrieves your firm's active bank accounts directly inside the Copilot Chat panel using this MCP Server. This lets your development team verify routing setups without requesting manual ledger exports. Having this data inside VS Code Copilot ensures you write integrations that target the correct operating and trust endpoints. Your team can run queries against live firm profiles instantly.

Audit retainer subscriptions using this MCP Server

The `list_subscriptions` tool pulls active billing agreements straight into your editor window. You can write scripts to identify lapsed agreements while Copilot monitors the live API responses. If an account looks off, run `get_payment_link_details` to drill down into the specific transactions. This gives your engineering team the context they need to debug billing issues without leaving VS Code.

Create clients and matters without leaving your code

The `create_client` tool lets you register new accounts directly from the VS Code Copilot interface. This speeds up testing of your automated legal intake forms. You can immediately link new files by running `list_matters` to confirm the records exist. It keeps your development loop tight and keeps your team focused on shipping code.
