Shared billing tools in VS Code Copilot
Commit your .vscode/mcp.json file to the repo to give every dev access to the same tools. Use `list_clients` to ensure the team works with the same data. This setup removes configuration drift. Everyone calls `get_client` using the same underlying server settings.

Handle customer records without leaving the editor. Use `create_client` to register new users as part of your feature development. Need to update a record? The `update_client` tool lets you modify details directly. It is perfect for managing account migration scripts.
Automate invoice lifecycle in VS Code Copilot
Build robust billing features with `create_invoice`. The AI can test your logic by generating real invoices and verifying them with `get_invoice`. Clean up your dev database with `delete_client` or `delete_invoice` when done. This keeps your testing environment orderly.
