How to Use the Jestor MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do I configure Jestor for my team in VS Code Copilot?

Create a .vscode/mcp.json file in your repository root and add the Jestor MCP Server configuration details. Once committed, any team member using VS Code Copilot with Agent mode enabled can access the database tools automatically.

Q: Can VS Code Copilot help me debug a broken Jestor workflow?

Yes. By calling listworkflows, VS Code Copilot retrieves your active automation configurations. It can then analyze the logic and compare it to your codebase to pinpoint where the integration is failing.

Q: How do I find out which internal apps are installed?

Ask Copilot to run listapps. It queries your account to return a list of all installed business applications, giving your developers a clear picture of the tools currently active in your organization.

Share live Jestor database schemas and active workflows across your entire team in VS Code Copilot.

Share Jestor database context via this MCP Server

Keep your entire engineering team aligned by committing your configuration directly to your repository. This MCP Server setup lets VS Code Copilot call `list_objects` to map out your database tables for any developer on the project, eliminating manual schema explanations. When developers are writing queries, Copilot runs `get_object` to inspect column types and relationships. It uses this live database metadata to autocomplete database queries and prevent schema mismatch errors before they are committed.

Debug active backend workflows from your editor

No more guessing why a background job failed to trigger. Your team can ask VS Code Copilot to run `list_workflows` to inspect the active business logic running on your low-code platform. It gives your developers instant visibility into automated events without leaving the editor. If you are debugging third-party integrations, call `list_webhooks` to see where incoming data is routed. Copilot analyzes these active hooks to help you trace data pipelines and fix broken webhooks faster.

Query live records and dashboards for context

Writing reports is simpler when you can see the target output. Use `list_dashboards` to discover existing visual metrics, allowing Copilot to understand how your business visualizes its active data. To verify data formats, your developers can run `list_records` or `get_record` to pull real-world entries into the chat panel. It provides the exact payload structure, helping your team build precise data pipelines.

Setup guide

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