Shared team resource tools

Commit your `.vscode/mcp.json` to the repository to give every developer access to DNV Renewables tools. The team uses the same `get_wind_resource_data` logic for consistency. This ensures everyone on the project works with identical data sources. It removes discrepancies in how your team assesses wind and solar potential.

Check site nodes for accuracy

Use `locate_data_nodes` to identify exact spatial resolution coverage for your wind farm site. This tool helps your team confirm that the data resolution matches your engineering requirements. VS Code Copilot displays the node details instantly. You verify your spatial constraints before committing to a specific dataset.

Automate order tracking for teams

Call `list_all_orders` to check the status of all pending climate data requests across your account. Your team stays informed on the status of every data extraction task. This visibility prevents duplicate orders and wasted effort. You coordinate your team's data needs through a single interface inside the editor.

Setup guide

Set up DNV Renewables 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 DNV Renewables 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.
4

Verify the connection

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

.vscode/mcp.json
