How to Use the NMKR Cardano MCP in VS Code Copilot
Equip your engineering team to track NMKR Cardano mint metrics and validate NFT metadata directly inside VS Code Copilot.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect NMKR Cardano MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect NMKR Cardano to VS Code Copilot and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Validate Cardano metadata inside VS Code Copilot
`validate_nft_metadata` checks your Cardano token metadata schemas against CIP standards directly in your workspace. VS Code Copilot processes this NMKR validation to flag schema errors before your team commits code to the repository. Your developers don't have to guess if their Cardano JSON structure is correct. The VS Code Copilot agent analyzes the errors and suggests the exact code changes needed to make the metadata compliant with NMKR standards.
Monitor live minting metrics with this MCP Server
`get_project_counts` pulls live Cardano asset counts and mint metrics into your VS Code Copilot chat window. This MCP Server lets your team monitor active NMKR drops without leaving their coding environment. You write scripts using real-world NMKR project states. The VS Code Copilot agent reads the live Cardano counts to help you build dynamic landing pages that adapt to current minting progress.
Verify revenue split configurations
`list_split_addresses` retrieves your configured NMKR revenue distribution setups directly inside your editor. VS Code Copilot compares these Cardano addresses with `list_payout_wallets` to verify your financial routing during development. This prevents Cardano payment routing bugs. Your team can run `list_vesting_addresses` via VS Code Copilot to ensure NMKR staking rewards and vesting schedules align with your project specifications.
