How to Use the IPQualityScore (IPQS) MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do we share the IPQualityScore (IPQS) MCP Server config across our team in VS Code Copilot?

Commit a .vscode/mcp.json file to your Git repository containing the IPQS server setup. Every developer using VS Code Copilot will instantly get access to the security tools.

Q: Can VS Code Copilot run IPQualityScore (IPQS) checks during debugging?

Yes, you can ask VS Code Copilot to run iplookup on suspicious IPs found in your debug console. The agent queries the IPQS API and explains the risk score without you leaving the editor.

Q: How do we verify our IPQualityScore (IPQS) API usage inside VS Code Copilot?

Your team can ask Copilot to execute getcredits to check your remaining monthly balance. This helps you monitor your IPQS quota during large-scale integration tests.

Q: How does the IPQS integration protect sensitive user emails and IP addresses in VS Code Copilot?

When checking an email or IP address via emaillookup or iplookup, the payload travels directly to the IPQS API over encrypted HTTPS connections. Vinkius processes these requests in an ephemeral V8 sandbox, meaning no personal data is stored or logged on our infrastructure.

Validate user signup data in VS Code Copilot

The `email_lookup` tool checks email risk scores and deliverability flags directly inside VS Code Copilot. Your engineering team can inspect how the IPQS API handles disposable emails while editing the signup controller. By calling `phone_lookup` in the same editor context, Copilot helps you write conditional logic to challenge high-risk mobile numbers. You write cleaner validation code because the AI has direct access to the live IPQS threat database.

Audit production fraud logs using this MCP Server

The `list_fraud` tool retrieves recent fraud events directly inside your VS Code Copilot chat window. Your team can quickly cross-reference these event logs with your local application code to patch security vulnerabilities. This MCP Server also exposes `list_reports` so you can see which security rules triggered recent flags. You fix bugs in your fraud-prevention logic without switching back and forth between VS Code and your browser.

Monitor API health and usage stats

The `list_stats` tool checks your integration health and API performance metrics directly within VS Code Copilot. Your team can run this tool to ensure that recent code deployments are not causing API latency or error spikes. With `get_account` and `get_credits`, Copilot monitors your active IPQS subscription status to prevent service disruptions. This keeps your production environment safe from downtime due to exhausted credit limits.

Setup guide

Set up IPQualityScore (IPQS) MCP in VS Code Copilot
