How to Use the Tomorrow.io Extended MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do I get a weather forecast with Tomorrow.io Extended in VS Code Copilot?

You commit getweatherforecast to your shared MCP config. Every developer can then use it immediately, letting them write code that predicts temperature and precipitation for future dates.

Q: Can the team list weather alerts using Tomorrow.io Extended in VS Code Copilot?

Yes. By including listweatheralerts, every developer gets access to check for critical warnings (like severe storm advisories) automatically when they write code that needs safety context.

Q: What if I need historical data for Tomorrow.io Extended in VS Code Copilot?

Just include getrecenthistory in the repository's MCP config. This makes past measurements available to every team member, ensuring consistency when building comparison logic.

Perplexity

Automate current condition checks for the whole team.

Need every developer on the team to reference real-time data? The `get_realtime_weather` tool allows you to commit an MCP config that accesses live temperature, wind speed, and visibility readings. Everyone gets the same reliable source. This means onboarding is simpler; the tools are part of the repository, not something individual developers have to set up.

Build team functions around air quality data.

If your project tracks environmental health, use `get_air_quality` in a shared configuration. Every teammate can write code that automatically includes the current AQI reading for context. This ensures consistency across the entire codebase without manual setup or individual API keys.

Create robust predictive models using historical data.

For complex logic, `get_recent_history` provides a reliable stream of past weather measurements. Commit this tool to let every developer reference multi-week atmospheric trends. You can write code that compares current variables against historical averages right out of the box.

Setup guide

Set up Tomorrow.io Extended 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.
