Unified MyHR setup for VS Code Copilot

Commit your configuration to the repo via `.vscode/mcp.json`. Every developer on your team gets instant access to `list_employees` and `get_employee_details` without manual setup. This keeps everyone on the same page. Your team builds against the same live data, reducing friction during onboarding and feature development.

Manage leave requests from VS Code Copilot

Enable your agent to log absences directly. By using `create_absence_request`, your team can handle HR tasks without breaking their coding flow. It puts HR operations where developers actually live. No more context switching just to log a simple request.

Access organizational context

Query your company structure with `list_departments` and `list_offices`. Your agent provides the context needed for enterprise-scale development in VS Code Copilot. It makes your code more relevant. You can build features that respect your company's actual hierarchy and office locations.

Setup guide

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

Common questions about MyHR MCP in VS Code Copilot

Add the server to your project's .vscode/mcp.json file. Once you commit this to your repository, every developer has access to the same tools.

It is. Once configured, you can enable agent mode and ask Copilot to interact with your HR data using the provided tools.

Yes. Because the configuration is file-based, it ensures consistency across your entire engineering team.

We use an ephemeral Vinkius sandbox for every session. Your employee data is isolated and handled via an encrypted endpoint token.

The server only interacts with the raw JSON records required for your specific tool calls. Your sensitive data remains ephemeral and is never logged or stored by the host.
