How to Use the Curator.io MCP in VS Code Copilot
Give your entire engineering team live Curator.io data inside VS Code Copilot.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Curator.io MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Curator.io 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.
Standardize Feed Access via MCP Server
Sharing API keys across a dev team creates security nightmares. You commit the Vinkius endpoint to your repository instead. Every developer running VS Code gets instant access to the MCP Server and can call `list_social_feeds` without touching a shared credentials file. Onboarding new engineers becomes trivial. They ask Copilot which feeds are active, and the agent runs `list_active_feeds`. The tool queries the feed status management boundary and returns the operational records directly in the chat window.
Debug Social Integrations
When the marketing site drops an Instagram feed, the engineering team has to fix it. Your AI client investigates the failure by calling `list_feed_sources`. It checks the ingestion gateway to see if the configured hashtags or accounts are still valid. Authentication drops cause most feed errors. Copilot runs `list_social_connections` to verify the OAuth states. You find out exactly which external API integration failed without leaving your editor.
Validate Content Delivery
Building custom layouts requires knowing exactly what the API returns. You tell Copilot to execute `list_feed_posts`. The agent pulls recent social media posts, exposing the exact timestamps and source origins to your local environment. Testing search functionality takes seconds. Copilot hits the indexed content boundary using `search_posts_in_feed`. It grabs matching post entities based on your keywords, letting you verify that the frontend filtering logic works against real data.
