Can I update a specific page property using my agent?

Yes. Use the `update_site_document` tool. You just need to provide the site name, culture, and alias path, along with a JSON block of the fields you want to mutate. Your agent will process the update through the Kentico REST service instantly.

How do I list rows from a custom table defined in Kentico?

The `list_custom_table_rows` tool allows your agent to extract tabular data contents from any custom table item structured within your project. You just need to provide the target table name to retrieve the current entries.

Can my agent manage system objects like user roles?

Absolutely. Use tools like `list_system_objects` and `update_system_object` with the object type `cms.role`. Your agent can help you audit current roles and mutate their properties through natural conversation.

Kentico (CMS & DXP) + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating Kentico (CMS & DXP) MCP Server with VS Code Copilot.

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
