How to Use the SEON MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How does SEON standardize fraud checks for my engineering team?

You commit the .vscode/mcp.json file, which makes the MCP Server available to everyone. All developers automatically use checkfraud, ensuring consistent risk assessment across the project.

Q: What data does SEON touch when retrieving transaction details?

The server accesses specific financial data via gettransaction and user identifiers through getaccountinfo. This is necessary to accurately detect fraud patterns in payments.

Q: Can I manage security lists using the SEON MCP Server?

Yes. You can list current blacklists with listlists or actively add a new entry using addtolist. This is all managed via the central configuration.

Standardize fraud detection for the whole team using SEON MCP Server in VS Code Copilot Chat.

Team Fraud Scoring with SEON MCP Server

The `check_fraud` tool standardizes risk scoring across your entire codebase. By committing the configuration via `.vscode/mcp.json`, every developer uses the exact same fraud logic. You can get a full picture by calling other tools like `get_account_info`. This makes sure no one misses a critical validation step.

Centralized AML Compliance

`aml_screening` performs the required Anti-Money Laundering checks right inside Copilot Chat. It’s easy to enforce compliance without manual steps. Additionally, you can use `list_rules` and `add_to_list` to maintain a single source of truth for all security definitions.

Comprehensive Identity Checks

`check_email`, `check_ip`, and `check_phone` provide multiple identity vectors. Combining these tools allows the team to build highly reliable user profiles. Developers can rely on this data, knowing that every instance of a check uses the same secure MCP Server endpoint.

Setup guide

Set up SEON 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 SEON 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.
