Connect GoTo Connect MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect GoTo Connect 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.
Standardize GoTo Connect tools in VS Code
Commit a `.vscode/mcp.json` file to your repo so every developer on your team has access to the same GoTo Connect tools. Everyone can run `list_sms_messages` or `get_call_records` with the same configuration. This removes the headache of individual setup. It makes your team more efficient by providing a unified interface for system data.
Unified GoTo Connect administration
Use the administrative tools to keep your development environment in sync with your production phone system. `list_users` and `list_devices` provide an instant audit of who is connected to what. It’s a professional way to manage internal tool access. Your team stays focused on the code, not the admin panel.
Automate communication tasks in VS Code
Use `send_sms` to trigger notifications directly from your editor. It’s perfect for setting up automated alerts for your team during deployment or testing. Your agent manages the interaction, so you don't have to worry about the underlying API calls. You just define the message and the recipient.
