Monitor Call Activity

Team members use `list_call_streams` to see a history of recent calls directly in the chat. Need more context? You can call `get_call_details` to pull every specific detail from an entire call stream. It’s great for onboarding new developers who need quick visibility into project assets.

Build Event-Driven Logic

To make your application reactive, use `create_webhook`. You can set up listeners that fire when a call starts (`call.started`) or when clip content is ready (`clip.created`). If the webhook isn't needed anymore, you remove it easily using `delete_webhook`.

Advanced Call Intelligence

Your AI client pulls deep insights from calls by calling `get_ai_insights_for_call`. This is key because it gives structured data summarizing the voice, video, and screen sharing that occurred. It also lets your team list all available call insights via `list_ai_skills_data`.

Setup guide

Set up SnapCall MCP in VS Code Copilot

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.
