Team-wide document automation with VS Code Copilot
The `generate_document` tool automates document rendering directly within your team's shared workspace. Commit your configuration to git so everyone on your engineering team can access the same MCP tools. By using a shared configuration, your team avoids API credential drift. Anyone can run `check_docsgenflow_status` to verify that the shared environment is fully operational.
Expose the DocsGenFlow MCP Server to your workspace
The `list_templates` tool exposes your entire document layout library to the workspace. Let your agent inspect your document structures directly in the terminal panel to check layout availability. If a team member updates a layout, your agent runs `get_template` to grab the updated schema. This keeps your local mock data in sync with production.
Review generation logs during active debugging
The `list_history` tool pulls recent transaction logs and error codes into your editor. Debugging document generation is easier when you can audit the API logs in real-time. If a specific generation fails, your agent uses `get_document` to inspect the metadata. This helps you pinpoint whether the issue is a bad merge field or an invalid schema.
