Connect Gallabox MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Gallabox 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.
Share WhatsApp tools via VS Code Copilot config
The Gallabox MCP Server lets your engineering team collaborate on messaging workflows by committing a configuration file to VS Code Copilot. Developers can query `list_whatsapp_channels` inside the editor to see which phone lines are active across the company. By standardizing the MCP environment, everyone on the team can run `verify_api_connection` to debug connection issues without sharing raw credentials over Slack.
Draft and test WhatsApp templates as a team
This integration lets VS Code Copilot read your approved messages using `list_message_templates` to ensure brand consistency. When writing customer alerts, the agent uses `send_whatsapp_template` to test the payload format directly from the terminal. You don't have to guess if your variables match Meta's requirements. The agent validates your inputs against the returned template schema before you deploy.
Manage active customer threads from your workspace
This tool collection exposes `list_active_chats` to VS Code Copilot so you can monitor live support queues. Your agent uses `get_chat_details` to pull metadata and help you debug routing issues without leaving your code. If a customer gets stuck, you can trigger `send_whatsapp_text` to send a quick update or run `list_support_teams` to hand the thread off to a human agent.
