Connect Dyte MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Dyte 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.
Manage Dyte meetings inside VS Code Copilot
This MCP Server integrates `create_meeting` directly into your VS Code Copilot Chat interface for shared video development workflows. By committing the configuration to your repository, your whole team can spin up test rooms without sharing individual API keys. Developers can run `list_meetings` in VS Code Copilot to see active test video sessions. This prevents team members from creating redundant rooms and keeps your shared development environments clean.
Manage participants and webhooks in VS Code Copilot
The `add_participant` tool lets your team generate video test tokens directly inside VS Code Copilot using this MCP Server. This speeds up frontend integration because developers can grab a fresh join token without leaving their editor. You can also run `create_webhook` in VS Code Copilot to register your team's local tunnel URLs for live video events. This ensures everyone gets immediate event notifications during collaborative debug sessions.
Control recordings and livestreams in VS Code Copilot
This MCP Server exposes `start_recording` and `stop_recording` directly to VS Code Copilot for automated video archive testing. Your team can verify recording storage configurations without manual API calls or custom shell scripts. If you are testing live video broadcast features, the Copilot agent can call `start_livestream` and `stop_livestream` to verify RTMP outputs. This keeps your media pipeline testing entirely within your code editor.
