Share company research tools

The `get_company_info` tool brings live business data directly into VS Code Copilot. Your entire engineering team gets access to this by committing the config file to your repository. Anyone can ask Copilot to pull a prospect's details without leaving their IDE. Checking a client's infrastructure takes seconds. Copilot runs the `get_company_tech` tool to list the frameworks and hosting providers a target company uses. This helps your sales engineers tailor their technical pitches perfectly.

Validate emails through this MCP Server

The `verify_email` tool lets Copilot check address deliverability right from your editor sidebar. You paste a list of leads into the chat, and the agent pings the server to drop the bad addresses. Finding missing contacts works the same way. The `find_email` and `find_phone` tools trigger when you give Copilot a name and a company domain. Your agent returns the direct dials and inbox addresses immediately.

Process LinkedIn data in your editor

The `enrich_linkedin` tool parses social URLs into structured JSON payloads. Copilot takes a raw profile link and extracts the job history, current title, and company size. Pulling account metadata is just as fast. The `get_account` tool fetches your current CUFinder subscription limits. Your agent checks this balance before running large batch jobs with the `bulk_enrich` tool.

Set up CUFinder 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.
