Connect Countly MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Countly to VS Code Copilot and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Deploy Countly tools across VS Code Copilot
Commit your `.vscode/mcp.json` to the repo so the whole team uses the same tools. Everyone gets consistent access to `read_metrics` and `read_events`. This setup ensures your team debugs with the same data. It removes inconsistencies in how you query your backend.
Manage sessions via this MCP Server in VS Code
Use `begin_session` to start tracking tests across your team's local environments. It keeps your event logs organized during group development. `update_session` and `end_session` allow for precise control over user state. You manage your analytics lifecycle without leaving the editor.
Automate analytics tasks in VS Code Copilot
Run `read_drill` to generate reports for your daily stand-up meetings. You pull the data directly into your chat and share it with your team. `update_user_details` lets you manage test accounts centrally. It saves time when you need to reconfigure your development database.
