How to Use the Flystack MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: What happens if the Flystack API is slow or down inside VS Code Copilot?

Your agent can run checkapistatus to determine if the latency is coming from the control plane. If the API is unreachable, the tools will gracefully report the timeout.

Share live infrastructure diagnostics across your engineering team directly within VS Code Copilot using this MCP Server.

Team-wide diagnostics in VS Code Copilot

Commit your infrastructure tool configurations directly to your repository. This MCP Server setup lets every developer on your team query live cluster states using Copilot Chat without sharing manual API keys or leaving the editor. Your agent can list active workloads by running `list_flystack_deployments` to help team members quickly understand what is currently deployed across environments.

Shared cluster health monitoring

Avoid debugging blind during team incidents. Developers can ask Copilot to fetch real-time memory and CPU utilization by executing `get_cluster_metrics` directly in their shared workspace. This provides immediate, objective telemetry to the entire team, preventing developers from chasing false leads based on outdated local assumptions.

Rapid workspace configuration audits

Compare your workspace code with actual running configurations. Your agent calls `get_deployment_details` to verify that your local environment variables match what is deployed in production. It uses `check_api_status` to ensure the diagnostic path is clear before pulling down deployment metadata, keeping your team's debugging workflow fast and reliable.

Setup guide

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

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "flystack-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }

Common questions about Flystack MCP in VS Code Copilot

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your project root and commit it to your Git repository. Every team member with the Copilot extension will instantly gain access to these MCP tools.

No, it cannot. The toolset is designed solely for observation, meaning your agent can run `get_cluster_metrics` to check health but cannot modify any underlying cloud resources.

Your agent can run `check_api_status` to determine if the latency is coming from the control plane. If the API is unreachable, the tools will gracefully report the timeout.

It acts as an automated diagnostic trigger. Your agent can quickly run `list_flystack_clusters` and fetch details on failing deployments to generate structured incident summaries for your team.

All queried deployment details and cluster metrics are transmitted over secure TLS connections directly to your local editor session. No configuration telemetry is ever stored or tracked on external databases by the MCP Server.
