Manage deals via VS Code Copilot

The team commits the `zendesk-sell-mcp` config to the repo, making all deal tools available. You can write code that calls `get_deal_details` and gets a live status report for any given opportunity. Need to adjust an opportunity? The agent supports calling `update_existing_deal`, letting your team make changes through committed code.

Create leads with VS Code Copilot

The shared configuration allows every developer to call `create_new_lead` when writing code that integrates new sales data. You just need a last name or organization name to start the record. This function, alongside `list_sales_leads`, makes sure your team always has visibility into unprocessed prospects.

List contacts and deals via VS Code Copilot

The `.vscode/mcp.json` enables calling tools like `list_sales_contacts` directly in the codebase. Your code can instantly retrieve a full list of qualified prospects. Likewise, running `list_sales_deals` lets your team build scripts that process all open opportunities at once.
