How to Use the KPA Flex MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do I deploy the KPA Flex MCP Server to VS Code Copilot for my team?

Add the KPA Flex connection details to a .vscode/mcp.json file at the root of your repository. Once you commit and push that file, any engineer pulling the repo gets immediate access to the tools.

Q: Can VS Code Copilot search KPA Flex incident reports?

Yes. Switch your chat to Agent mode and ask it to run the searchehsreports tool. It queries the database and returns relevant safety incidents directly in your editor.

Q: Can I build custom forms with this integration?

You read existing form templates using listcustomforms, but this MCP Server does not support creating new ones. It is strictly for reading EHS data into your development environment.

Give your entire engineering team access to live KPA Flex MCP Server safety records right inside VS Code Copilot.

Share KPA Flex context across your team

By committing your `.vscode/mcp.json` file, every developer gets instant access to the KPA Flex MCP Server. When a new engineer joins, they skip the onboarding docs and immediately ask Copilot to run `get_flex_site_stats`. Nobody has to hunt down API documentation. Copilot fetches the exact structure of your safety audits by calling `get_form_schema`. Your team writes data-binding code based on live, accurate JSON shapes rather than outdated wiki pages.

Audit employee training via Copilot

Copilot uses `list_flex_employees` to pull active user records when your team builds HR integrations. It then combines that with `list_safety_trainings` to help you write the logic that flags expired certifications. If an engineer needs to drill down into a specific worker's history, they just tell Copilot to execute `get_employee_ehs_profile`. The agent pulls the live compliance status and writes the exact data transformation functions you need.

Debug asset and inspection data

Copilot calls `list_company_assets` to populate your local dev environment with actual machinery records. You stop wasting time writing fake database seeders for your maintenance dashboards. To test how your app handles failed safety checks, Copilot runs `list_ehs_inspections` followed by `get_inspection_details`. The agent uses these real hazard reports to help you write strict error-handling and filtering logic.

Setup guide

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

.vscode/mcp.json

  "mcpServers": {
    "kpa-flex-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
