Standardize HTML cleaning across your team

The `sanitizeHtml_html` tool lets you enforce identical sanitization rules across your entire engineering team. By committing the configuration to your repository, every developer using VS Code Copilot gets access to the exact same MCP tool. This prevents individual developers from writing weak, custom regex bypasses. Your agent calls the tool directly during code reviews or inline editing sessions. It ensures that any user-facing HTML input is sanitized before it gets committed to version control.

Validate input pipelines using this MCP Server

The `sanitizeHtml_html` tool tests how your backend pipelines handle malicious markup. Your VS Code Copilot agent can simulate attack payloads and verify that the output remains clean. This helps you identify vulnerabilities in your data ingestion layer before deployment. Because the tool executes in a sandboxed environment, you don't risk executing malicious scripts on your local dev machine. It provides a safe, isolated testbed for security validation.

Refactor dirty database inputs in VS Code Copilot

The `sanitizeHtml_html` tool helps you clean up legacy database exports that contain unescaped HTML. Ask your agent to scan your migration files and apply the sanitization tool to raw string variables. It automates the tedious work of cleaning legacy data. The integration works instantly once you define the server in your user settings. Your agent handles the rest, invoking the tool whenever it encounters raw HTML blocks.

Setup guide

Set up HTML XSS Sanitizer 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.
2

Add the HTML XSS Sanitizer MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into your .vscode/mcp.json. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

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.
4

Verify the connection

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

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "html-xss-sanitizer-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }

Common questions about HTML XSS Sanitizer MCP in VS Code Copilot

Create an configuration file in your project root and commit it to your Git repository. Every team member with VS Code Copilot will automatically load the MCP server.

It uses a strict, zero-allowlist schema by default to ensure maximum security. This prevents bypasses from complex nested elements inside VS Code Copilot.

Yes, it runs inside a zero-trust, SOC 2 compliant V8 sandbox on Vinkius. Your code strings are parsed ephemerally and never written to disk.

It strips out dangerous event handlers and script tags from raw markup strings. By cleaning the data before database insertion, it guarantees that stored payloads cannot execute when rendered.

It only accesses the raw HTML strings you pass to it. All processing occurs in isolated V8 containers that are destroyed immediately after execution, keeping your data secure.
