Is Google.com hosted on green energy?

Yes! Google is a registered green hosting provider in the database. You can use the `check_green_hosting` tool to verify the status of any of its domains.

What does it mean if a site is not green?

It means the hosting provider is either using conventional fossil-fuel-based energy or has not yet registered their renewable energy usage with the Green Web Foundation.

Can I check multiple domains in a single session?

Yes. You can provide a list of domains to your AI agent, and it will call the `check_green_hosting` tool for each one, providing a summarized sustainability report.

Green Web Check + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating Green Web Check MCP Server with VS Code Copilot.

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
