How to Use the HubSpot MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: Can we use VS Code Copilot to link a HubSpot contact to a company for our whole team?

Yes. By committing the mcp.json file to your repo, everyone gets the linkcrmobjects tool. Anyone on the team can then ask Copilot to associate a contact ID with a company ID.

Q: If I remove a contact with removecontact, is it a soft or hard delete?

The removecontact tool performs a permanent deletion of the contact record in HubSpot. This action cannot be undone, so use it with care, especially in a production environment.

Give your whole team access to HubSpot. Standardize CRM automation in VS Code with a shared Copilot config.

Team-Wide HubSpot Tools

Drop the `mcp.json` config in your repo's `.vscode` directory, and every developer on your team instantly gets the same set of HubSpot tools in Copilot. No more "it works on my machine" issues with custom scripts. Everyone is on the same page. Your agent can now run `list_companies`, `list_contacts`, and `list_deals` for anyone who pulls the repo. It's the right way to manage team-based access to your CRM data for development and testing.

Build and Test with Live Data

When you're writing code that interacts with HubSpot, you need real data. Ask Copilot's agent to `get_deal_details` or `get_contact_details` for an existing record. You get the real object structure, not a stale example from the docs. You can even manage your test data from the editor. Use `create_contact` to add a new record, `link_crm_objects` to connect it to a deal, and `remove_contact` to clean up afterwards. This makes for a much tighter development cycle.

Enterprise-Ready HubSpot MCP Server

This isn't some rogue script. It's a managed MCP server that gives Copilot a secure, standardized way to talk to HubSpot. Your agent can even inspect the CRM's structure by calling `get_object_schema` to see what custom fields are available. Need to know who owns a certain record? Use `list_hubspot_users`. The tools provide a controlled, auditable window into your CRM, right from the editor your team already uses.

Setup guide

Set up HubSpot 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 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 HubSpot tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent HubSpot transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.

.vscode/mcp.json

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

Common questions about HubSpot MCP in VS Code Copilot

With the MCP server configured, any team member can open Copilot Chat and ask, "find the HubSpot contact with the email 'test@example.com'." Copilot will use the `search_contacts` tool to get the result.

Yes. By committing the `mcp.json` file to your repo, everyone gets the `link_crm_objects` tool. Anyone on the team can then ask Copilot to associate a contact ID with a company ID.

Standardization and discovery. Everyone on the team gets the same 12 tools, and Copilot knows their inputs and outputs. This prevents one-off scripts and ensures your whole team builds against the same HubSpot interface.

The `remove_contact` tool performs a permanent deletion of the contact record in HubSpot. This action cannot be undone, so use it with care, especially in a production environment.

All communication between the Vinkius-managed server and the HubSpot API is encrypted. Your requests for contact, company, and deal data are processed in a zero-trust, ephemeral environment. Vinkius never persists your specific CRM data.
