How to Use the GroundX MCP in VS Code Copilot
Standardize team knowledge with GroundX and VS Code Copilot.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect GroundX MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect GroundX 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.
Shared GroundX tools for VS Code Copilot
Commit your server config to the repo so the whole team uses the same data sources. Everyone can run `search_content` to get consistent answers. This removes the "works on my machine" problem for AI context. Your team stays synced on project details.
Ingest team documentation
Use `ingest_documents` to upload your team's architecture PDFs. The server processes them, making them ready for your Copilot agent. Once indexed, these files become a single source of truth. Any developer can search them via the chat interface.
Manage RAG workflows
Use `list_workflows` to see how your team's data is being queried. It gives you visibility into the search logic applied to your indexed content. If you need to check account limits or status, use `get_customer_info`. It keeps your team's integration transparent and managed.
