Query Leal customer profiles inside VS Code Copilot

Keep your engineering team aligned by sharing your Leal database configurations directly in your VS Code workspace. This MCP Server lets your team use VS Code Copilot to query live customer records with `get_member` and check points via `get_member_balance`. Instead of sharing API keys or writing custom internal admin tools, developers can query Leal loyalty data right from the VS Code Copilot chat sidebar. It makes debugging Latin American user account issues during development incredibly fast.

Verify Leal transaction logs during VS Code Copilot testing

Testing checkout integrations shouldn't require manual database lookups, so your team can ask VS Code Copilot to run `list_transactions` or `get_member_transactions`. This lets you verify that test purchases are registering correctly in the Leal sandbox. VS Code Copilot parses the live Leal JSON response inside your editor window. You can immediately compare the server's transactional output against your local code's expected state to catch bugs before they reach staging.

Manage Leal campaigns and active rewards from VS Code Copilot

When building promotional banners, you need the exact IDs and metadata of active Leal campaigns. VS Code Copilot uses `list_campaigns` and `list_rewards` to fetch these details directly into your active code editor. You can ask the VS Code Copilot assistant to generate TypeScript interfaces directly from the raw Leal payloads. It saves hours of manual type-definition work when mapping Latin American retail campaigns.

Setup guide

Set up Leal 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 Leal 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.

Verify the connection

In the Copilot Chat input, type # to list available tools. You should see the Leal tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent Leal transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.

.vscode/mcp.json

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