Can my AI actively search for a specific customer before creating an invoice?

Yes. It can sequentially execute `search_customers` to find the precise Unique ID of the customer using fuzzy name matching, and subsequently inject that accurate payload into `create_document` without human error.

Is 'list_stocks' showing data in real-time?

Yes. Since this operates as a direct pass-through via the MCP to the PHC GO platform API, all stock matrices, warehouse item counts, and current accounts represent the exact live state of your corporate database in the split second the AI requests it.

Can I query products that exist across multiple warehouses?

Absolutely. By commanding the agent to align returns from both `list_products` and `list_warehouses` against `list_stocks`, your LLM can map out a matrix comparing which warehouse holds the higher volume of the targeted SKUs.

PHC GO + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating PHC GO MCP Server with VS Code Copilot.

Which VS Code version supports MCP?

MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.

How do I switch to Agent mode?

Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.

Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?

Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.

Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?

Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
