Share Lunatask tools across your team

Commit your configuration to `.vscode/mcp.json` to ensure every engineer has access to the same task management tools. This makes it simple to manage your workflow consistently across the entire organization. Your team can use `create_new_task` or `update_existing_task` with uniform settings. It removes the guesswork from setting up local developer environments.

Track progress directly in VS Code Copilot

Use `track_habit_completion` to log your daily goals as you work. It is a quick way to stay accountable without leaving the IDE. Engineers can also use `list_notes_metadata` to check their journals. It keeps your documentation and code in one place.

Access task metadata via the Lunatask MCP Server

Run `list_tasks_metadata` to pull your current task list into your chat window. It gives you the structure you need to organize your coding sprints effectively. When you need to look at specific items, `get_task_metadata` provides the details. It is a professional way to manage your work while keeping your data secure.

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.
