Team-wide coverage monitoring in VS Code Copilot

The `get_repo_web_data` tool pulls real-time metrics directly from Coveralls into your active editor. No more arguing over who broke the coverage threshold. Anyone on the team can ask Copilot to check the latest build status with `get_build_web_data`, pulling real-time metrics directly from Coveralls into their active editor.

Submit and verify test runs within your IDE

The `submit_job` tool uploads local coverage data, git metadata, and source files directly to Coveralls. This lets developers check their work before pushing to main. Once uploaded, the agent uses `get_job_web_data` to verify the run. This gives your team immediate feedback on whether their local changes decreased the overall test coverage.

Administer Coveralls repos using this MCP Server

The `update_repo` tool modifies your repository settings to ensure they match your branch policies. Copilot can execute this or fetch current integration statuses with `get_repo` to keep your project settings clean. If a parallel build gets stuck during a team-wide release, any developer can ask Copilot to run `close_parallel_build` or `rerun_build` to keep the deployment pipeline moving.
