How to Use the Convoy MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do we share the Convoy MCP server configuration in VS Code Copilot?

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your repository root and add the server config there. When team members open the project in VS Code 1.96+ with Copilot, the tools will load automatically.

Q: Can VS Code Copilot trigger broadcast events in Convoy?

Yes. The agent can execute broadcastevent or fanoutevent to distribute test payloads to all registered endpoints in your current project.

Q: Can VS Code Copilot import OpenAPI schemas into Convoy?

Yes, VS Code Copilot can invoke importeventtypes to pull your OpenAPI schemas directly into your project configuration, ensuring payload validation matches your code.

Q: Can we pause endpoints from the VS Code Copilot chat?

Yes. If a service goes down, you can ask Copilot to run pauseendpoint to stop deliveries, and then run activateendpoint once your team deploys the fix.

Manage team-wide webhook pipelines and debug deliveries directly from VS Code Copilot using this MCP server.

Configure the Convoy MCP Server for your entire team

Standardize how your engineering team interacts with webhooks. By committing the MCP server configuration to your repository in `.vscode/mcp.json`, every developer gets instant access to tools like `list_endpoints` and `list_subscriptions` inside VS Code Copilot. This shared environment ensures everyone tests against the same endpoints. Developers can inspect configurations and verify setup consistency without sharing manual API keys or custom scripts.

Provision webhook resources during development

Setting up new integration environments is fast when your agent handles the heavy lifting. VS Code Copilot uses `create_endpoint` and `create_source` to provision the necessary webhook infrastructure directly from the chat panel. For complex migrations or team onboarding, the agent can call `bulk_onboard` to configure multiple endpoints and subscriptions simultaneously, keeping your staging environments perfectly in sync.

Team-wide webhook debugging and retries

When production webhooks fail, your team can debug them collaboratively. VS Code Copilot calls `list_event_deliveries` and `get_delivery_attempt` to pull the exact failure logs into the shared editor workspace. Once the team identifies the bug and commits the fix, any developer can run `batch_retry_event_deliveries` from their editor to clear the backlog and verify that the system is processing events correctly.

Setup guide

Set up Convoy 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 Convoy 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 Convoy tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent Convoy transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.
