…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Fathom MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Fathom 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.
Sync Fathom Action Items with VS Code Copilot
The `get_action_items` tool imports tasks directly from your sprint planning calls into your active workspace. Your team generates boilerplates and stubs out functions based on decisions made during the call. This MCP setup allows team members to commit configurations to Git, giving everyone instant access to the same meeting database. You remove the friction of manually copying requirements from external documents.
Analyze Transcripts Directly Inside the Editor
The `get_transcript` tool feeds raw meeting text to VS Code Copilot for rapid refactoring and bug tracing. If a customer reported a bug during a call, you look up the transcript to see the exact error message they described. When you need a quick overview instead of thousands of lines of text, `get_summary` provides a high-level breakdown. This lets your team stay focused on writing code instead of reading long chat logs.
Manage Webhooks and Meeting Playbacks
The `get_webhooks` tool lists active integrations to ensure your system updates in real-time when a call ends. You monitor data pipelines directly from the terminal without opening external developer consoles. To review specific video segments, `get_recording` pulls direct playback URLs so you verify UI behaviors discussed by users. You also run `list_meetings` to see the queue of recent calls waiting for review.
