Query Heymarket Data in VS Code Copilot

The `list_contacts` tool searches your business database by phone number right from your editor. You can also register new entries on the fly using `create_contact`. Developers stop jumping between browser tabs to check CRM records. Your agent pulls the exact profile you need while you write the integration code.

Inspect Real Message Payloads

The `get_message_details` tool fetches the exact schema of any text message. You pair this with `get_chat_history` to grab full conversation threads. Building webhook handlers becomes straightforward. You feed the actual API response into your MCP agent, and it generates the correct TypeScript interfaces for you.

Trigger State Changes via MCP Server

The `update_chat_status` tool modifies the assignment of any active conversation. You test your routing logic by physically changing the ticket state. Team rosters pull directly via `list_team_members`. If you need to simulate an outgoing blast, `send_sms_message` pushes a real text to your test phone.

Setup guide

Set up Heymarket 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.

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.

Verify the connection

In the Copilot Chat input, type # to list available tools. You should see the Heymarket tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent Heymarket transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.
