Manage Team Access via MCP Server

For enterprise teams, consistency matters. You use `traefik_list_subscriptions` to map every external identity attempting logic access across the Gateway. This allows IT managers to standardize auditing. If a service is retired, you can run `traefik_revoke_subscription`. The team configuration commits this action immediately, ensuring no stale tokens remain active.

Audit and List All Exposed APIs

The whole team needs to know the system's boundaries. Use `traefik_list_apis` to dump a central directory of all published internal and external HTTP APIs routed across Traefik Hub. This data populates the shared `.vscode/mcp.json`. Additionally, running `traefik_list_workspaces` enumerates active logic scopes, giving developers context on which namespaces are currently in use.

Ensure Operational Stability Across the Team

The team can't afford downtime. The MCP Server allows running `traefik_get_agent_health` to check liveness probes across all ingress hubs. This prevents developers from writing code that relies on a flaky component. This proactive checking ensures every developer using Copilot Chat has the most current view of system stability.

Setup guide

Set up Traefik Hub 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
