Share Marchex tool access in VS Code

Commit your `.vscode/mcp.json` to the repo to give every developer on your team the same access to `list_accounts` and `list_campaigns`. This ensures everyone builds against the same platform definitions. It removes the friction of manual setup and configuration drift. Your team works with a unified set of tools that provide consistent data across all workstations.

Automate analytics reporting with VS Code

Use `get_call_analytics` to pull performance reports directly into your IDE. Your agent can aggregate this data to help you write test cases or documentation that stays in sync with your live campaigns. This keeps your technical documentation accurate. Since the data comes straight from the source, you never have to worry about your examples becoming outdated.

Verify account configurations in VS Code

Need to check a tracking number or a user role? Use `list_numbers` and `list_users` to pull the current account state without leaving your editor. This MCP Server makes it easy to confirm your environment is set up correctly. It saves you from the constant context switching that kills productivity. You check your configuration, verify the IDs, and get back to your code immediately.

Setup guide

Set up Marchex 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.

Switch to Agent mode
