VS Code Copilot MCP Server Integration

The `create_hubspot_lead` tool integrates directly into your editor so your entire team shares the same CRM capability. You open the Copilot Chat panel, provide a few contact details, and the agent pushes the record. Just supply an email, plus any optional names, phone digits, or company identifiers. This shifts how sales engineers and internal tool developers work. You commit the MCP configuration file to your repository. When a new developer pulls the code, they instantly get the ability to generate test leads without hunting for API keys.

Team-Wide Lead Generation

Running `create_hubspot_lead` through Copilot means you never have to break focus to log a technical prospect. If you are reviewing a support ticket in your IDE and realize the user is a massive enterprise lead, you just tell the AI to save them. The payload formats perfectly every time. It eliminates the context switch between your code and your sales portal. You stay in the terminal, the lead goes to the sales team, and nobody drops the ball. The process is entirely frictionless.

Strict Write-Only Access

Calling `create_hubspot_lead` does exactly what it says on the tin. This server cannot scrape your customer database or overwrite critical account information. It simply accepts the data you provide and creates a new entry. Security teams love this narrow scope. You give Copilot the power to add leads without granting it the keys to read your entire CRM history. This MCP operates as a locked-down, single-action tool designed for enterprise environments.

Setup guide

Set up HubSpot Lead Creator 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 HubSpot Lead Creator 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.

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

Common questions about HubSpot Lead Creator MCP in VS Code Copilot

Create a shared MCP configuration file in your project directory so the whole team can use it. Add the server details to the mcpServers object. Make sure you are running VS Code version 1.96 or higher and switch Copilot to Agent mode.

No, it sticks to the basics. You can send an email, first name, last name, phone number, and company. Custom fields require manual mapping outside of this specific tool.

Yes, that is the main advantage. By placing the configuration in your workspace folder and committing it to Git, every developer gets instant access to the exact same tool.

The request will fail. HubSpot requires an email to create a valid contact record through this specific endpoint. The AI will prompt you to provide one before it attempts the API call.

The extension only transmits the exact email, firstname, lastname, phone, and company parameters you explicitly authorize. The server operates in a zero-trust sandbox, meaning Copilot cannot accidentally leak your local source code to HubSpot.
