How to Use the Kavak MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: Can VS Code Copilot check my Kavak reservation status?

Yes. The agent uses listreservations to find your active holds. It can also check a specific ID using getreservation.

Q: Does VS Code Copilot pull financing data from Kavak?

It pulls real loan terms. Copilot calls getfinancingoptions to retrieve the current plans and writes the calculation logic for you.

Q: Can I see what a trade-in is worth?

You can. The estimatetradein tool calculates value based on the Mexican market. The agent uses this to test your pricing algorithms.

Give your engineering team direct access to the Kavak MCP Server right inside VS Code Copilot.

Standardize Kavak data access in VS Code Copilot

Your team can execute `search_vehicles` straight from the editor once the config is committed. Setting up this MCP Server for a whole team takes five minutes. You just drop the server config into `.vscode/mcp.json` and push it to Git. Populating a database requires `list_makes` and `list_models` to fetch the manufacturer list. This means everyone works from the same data source. The AI client fetches the exact same manufacturer list for everyone on the repository.

Build with real mechanical reports

Copilot uses `get_vehicle` to pull the full spec sheet before you build a car detail page. Building UI components requires knowing the exact data shape. It then calls `get_vehicle_inspection` to see how the 240-point check is structured. Firing `get_vehicle_history` returns the accident and ownership records directly to your agent. Background checks are easy to integrate when you have live data. Your agent reads the JSON and writes the exact parsing functions needed to display this in your frontend.

Test bookings via the MCP Server

Copilot executes `create_reservation` to lock a vehicle so you can test the checkout flow. You can test the entire process without writing manual curl requests. You then use `get_reservation` to verify the status changed in the backend. Testing the booking logic works by calling `schedule_test_drive` to arrange a showroom or home visit. You see exactly how the API handles addresses and times. This lets you write bulletproof error handling for edge cases.

Setup guide

Set up Kavak 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.
