Automate team alerts using this VS Code Copilot MCP Server

The `send_google_chat_message` tool enables VS Code Copilot to post automated status reports to your shared team channels. By committing the configuration to your repository, every developer on the team gets access to the notification tool. This ensures that deployment alerts, linting errors, and test results are communicated uniformly. Copilot handles the payload formatting and dispatches the alert without manual intervention.

Rich card UI payloads

The `send_google_chat_message` tool accepts structured card layouts via the cardJson parameter to make alerts highly readable. Your agent can build visual cards containing action buttons, status badges, and formatted headers. VS Code Copilot generates these layouts based on your active workspace context. It translates raw terminal errors or git commit logs into structured visual cards for your team.

Direct webhook routing

The `send_google_chat_message` tool bypasses heavy notification middleware by sending payloads straight to Google Chat's webhook URL. It operates with zero local MCP configuration overhead beyond the target URL itself. Copilot accesses the tool via standard stdio channels on your machine. The message is dispatched instantly, keeping your team updated on your development progress.

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.
