Manage marketing contacts via VS Code Copilot

Use `search_contacts_by_email` to find records without leaving your IDE. It is a faster way to verify contact history while you work on integrations. Adding contacts is just as easy with `add_new_marketing_contact`. Your team can now update your database directly from their code editor.

Analyze campaigns using VS Code Copilot

Pull performance reports with `get_campaign_performance` to see how your mailers are doing. It helps your team spot trends in real time. You can also call `list_high_performing_campaigns` to identify successful patterns. This data helps inform the features your team builds next.

Coordinate automations in VS Code Copilot

List your active automations using `list_active_automations`. It keeps the whole team aligned on what is currently live in your marketing stack. Check account settings with `get_account_metadata` to ensure team-wide compliance. It is a simple way to keep your API usage visible to everyone.

Setup guide

Set up Dialog Insight 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 Dialog Insight 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.

Verify the connection

In the Copilot Chat input, type # to list available tools. You should see the Dialog Insight tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent Dialog Insight transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.
