How to Use the Ember Climate MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: Can VS Code Copilot query monthly emissions metrics using Ember Climate?

Yes, Copilot can call getpowersectoremissionsmonthly to retrieve CO2 emissions data. It can then use this data to help you write and test carbon accounting modules.

Q: How do I find valid filtering options for Ember Climate in VS Code Copilot?

Ask Copilot to run getapioptions to get valid country codes, energy sources, and date ranges. This ensures your code queries use the correct parameters.

Q: Does VS Code Copilot support yearly demand queries with this MCP Server?

Yes, Copilot can call getelectricitydemandyearly to fetch historical electricity consumption data. This is useful for writing demand forecasting algorithms and validating model assumptions.

Let your team query Ember Climate energy and emissions datasets directly from VS Code Copilot using this shared MCP Server config.

Shared team configurations for energy data

Commit an MCP config to your repository using a .vscode/mcp.json file. This allows every developer on your team to access `get_electricity_generation_monthly` and `get_electricity_generation_yearly` directly from VS Code Copilot. Your engineering team can quickly verify energy generation metrics during code reviews. VS Code Copilot reads the shared configuration, standardizing how your team queries global grid data.

Track grid decarbonization in your editor

Query `get_carbon_intensity_monthly` and `get_carbon_intensity_yearly` directly from the Copilot chat panel. Doing this lets you inspect the carbon footprints of regional grids as you write environmental compliance software. The MCP server returns the emissions intensity data directly into VS Code. Your development team can use these live values to benchmark carbon tracking features and audit automated reporting systems.

Analyze multi-nation generation profiles

Use VS Code Copilot to run comparative analyses across multiple countries using `get_generation_multi_entity`. This tool provides energy generation metrics for several regions in a single query. Copilot parses the multi-nation dataset to help you write data pipelines, database seeding scripts, or analytical models. Having this data inside your editor saves time and eliminates the need for manual browser searches.

Setup guide

Set up Ember Climate 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 Ember Climate 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 Ember Climate tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent Ember Climate transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.
