How to Use the Gong MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do I share the Gong MCP Server config with my team in VS Code Copilot?

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your project root and commit it to your repository. When your team opens the project in VS Code Copilot, the editor automatically loads the server tools.

Q: Can VS Code Copilot pull Gong transcripts to debug text processing code?

Yes, it can. Your VS Code Copilot agent runs gettranscript to grab real call dialogues, which helps you debug search indexers or sentiment analysis features.

Standardize team-wide sales integrations in VS Code Copilot

Keep your entire engineering team aligned by committing your tool configuration to Git. By placing a `.vscode/mcp.json` file in your repository, every developer using VS Code Copilot gets instant access to `list_calls` and `get_call_stats`. This setup ensures that everyone building custom sales tools is testing against the same schema. Your team can collaboratively write code that pulls conversation metrics without manual environment setup.

Analyze sales rep metrics directly in your workspace

Building a custom dashboard for your sales managers requires accurate user data. VS Code Copilot uses `list_users` and `get_user_stats` to pull real-time representative metrics directly into your coding environment. Ask VS Code Copilot to write a script that aggregates user performance, and it will use these tools to verify active user lists. This prevents bugs caused by stale user IDs or missing attributes.

Query pipeline data to build custom forecasting models

Developing custom forecasting algorithms is simpler when you can pull active deal data. VS Code Copilot runs `list_deals` and `list_calls_by_date` to inspect active opportunities and their associated conversations. When you ask VS Code Copilot to write a predictive model, it pulls live data to verify that your data ingestion logic matches the actual API output. This ensures your forecasts are built on reality.

Setup guide

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

.vscode/mcp.json
