Perplexity

Align your team on live private equity funds

The `list_funds` and `list_portfolios` tools let your engineering team fetch active private equity fund details directly inside VS Code Copilot. By checking in an MCP Server configuration file to your shared repository, every developer on your team gets instant access to these tools. This team-wide setup ensures everyone writes code against the same production fund IDs. Your developers can query active portfolios during code reviews, eliminating discrepancies between local environments and production databases.

Build validation logic around active investments

The `list_investments` and `get_investment` tools expose live valuation and asset metrics directly to Copilot's Agent mode. When writing data validation scripts, your developers can ask Copilot to verify if a function correctly handles specific valuation formats. The agent pulls live JSON payloads to test edge cases, such as fractional ownership or complex asset structures. This direct feedback loop helps your team catch parsing bugs before they reach the main branch.

Verify system status and user directories in VS Code Copilot

The `get_status` and `list_users` tools provide your team with immediate visibility into API availability and user directories via this MCP Server. If a developer suspects an integration issue, they can ask Copilot to check system health without leaving the editor. Copilot also calls `get_version` to confirm your team is targeting the correct API version. Having these diagnostics inside VS Code Copilot prevents wasted hours debugging issues caused by external API downtime.
