Can the AI forcefully complete an active marketplace payment transition?

Absolutely. Through the `transition_transaction` method, your prompt can dictate the order pipeline. Ensure you pass the specific UUID of the order and the explicit, configured transition name (e.g., "transition/accept" or "transition/complete") to force the lifecycle into its subsequent operational phase immediately.

Why use the Integration API instead of the Marketplace API?

Because the `Integration API` is the unadulterated administrator backend designed for secure backend logic rather than client interfaces. This permits system-level moderation, transaction configuration, and override state.

Can this integration modify review ratings directly?

Currently, the integration specifically implements `list_reviews` as a query mechanism tailored exclusively around monitoring and auditing capabilities. It does not actively expose a write mutation structurally to alter or destroy existing community integrity ratings.

About Sharetribe MCP Server

Grant your AI agent (like Claude or Cursor) absolute administrative dominion over your custom marketplace. The Sharetribe MCP equips your LLM to act as a fully autonomous moderator and operations manager. Forget navigating complex vendor panels—now you can manage supply, moderate transactions, and govern your community via natural conversational prompts interacting deeply with your Integration API.

GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Sharetribe data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 9 tools — Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.

What you can do

Inventory & Listing Moderation — Crawl through vendor catalogs via list_listings. Drill down seamlessly with get_listing and publicly publish vetted entries dynamically using approve_listing.
Live Transaction Steering — Audit ongoing orders, payments, and booking pipelines with list_transactions. Have an order that needs fulfillment? Force operational momentum by applying the transition_transaction verb.
Community & Vendor Auditing — Interrogate the platform using list_users and get_user to investigate behavioral profiles, while constantly scanning aggregated list_reviews to maintain healthy interactions.

The Sharetribe MCP Server exposes 9 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to VS Code Copilot in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Sharetribe + VS Code Copilot FAQ

Common questions about integrating Sharetribe 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.
