What is the 4D MCP Server?
Bridge your 4D Server with the world of AI Agents through the power of ORDA (Object Relational Data Architecture). This integration transforms your 4D database into an intelligent, queryable knowledge base, allowing your AI agent to explore structures and manage records through natural conversation. No more manual REST calls; your agent can now audit catalogs, run complex entity queries, and perform high-speed CRUD operations, ensuring your 4D data is always accessible and actionable within your AI workflows.
What you can do
- Database Exploration — Retrieve the full catalog of DataClasses (tables) and their attribute definitions (fields) to map your data structure.
- Advanced Querying — Perform complex data lookups using filters, ordering, and expansion of related entities with ORDA syntax.
- CRUD Operations — Create, read, update, and delete records across any exposed DataClass in your 4D environment.
- Metadata Insights — Check server information, version, and database structure on the fly to ensure system integrity.
- Structured Access — Interact with your data using the modern ORDA model, ensuring consistency, type safety, and security.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your 4D Server Base URL and Credentials
- Start querying and managing your 4D database through Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- 4D Developers — quickly audit data and test queries using natural language commands without custom code.
- Data Analysts — retrieve specific data subsets for reporting without writing manual HTTP requests or SQL.
- Business Admins — manage application records and look up information across tables easily from a single chat interface.
- Systems Integrators — verify REST API exposure and data availability in real-time during development.

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings 4D data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 6 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Frequently asked questions
How do I find which tables are available?
Use the get_catalog tool. It will return a list of all DataClasses (tables) exposed through the REST API in your 4D Server.
Can I filter data based on specific conditions?
Yes. Use the list_entities tool and provide an ORDA-style filter string in the $filter parameter (e.g., "status = 'active' AND price > 100").
Does this support creating new records?
Absolutely. Use the create_entity tool by providing the DataClass name and a JSON string containing the field data for the new record.
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.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
