Align your team's code with VS Code Copilot

The Fellow MCP server lets you share workspace configurations so your team can query `list_streams` in VS Code Copilot. Committing the configuration to your repository lets every engineer use Copilot to inspect meeting agendas. This shared setup means anyone on the team can run `get_meeting` to review sprint decisions inside VS Code Copilot. It keeps everyone on the same page during active development cycles without needing external browsers.

Manage action items in the Copilot chat

Managing your checklist with the Fellow MCP server is easy when you run `list_action_items` from the VS Code Copilot sidebar. You can manage your daily checklist directly from the editor chat panel before you start writing code. Once a task is done, tell VS Code Copilot to run `complete_action_item`. It updates your workspace status instantly, saving you from opening a web browser to log your progress.

Create tasks from code reviews in VS Code Copilot

Creating follow-up tasks with the Fellow MCP server is direct when you run `create_action_item` inside VS Code Copilot during code reviews. The tool lets you assign the task by email and set a due date. You can also run `list_notes` in VS Code Copilot to see where to document the follow-up work for the next team sync. This keeps your code reviews tightly aligned with your team's meeting documentation.
