Frequently asked questions
How can I find the specific ID for a dataset like 'Tarifas das Distribuidoras'?
You can use the list_packages tool to see all available names. Once you identify the name, use get_package with that ID to see all its internal resources and metadata.
Can I search for a specific company name inside a CSV resource?
Yes! If the resource is part of the DataStore, use the search_datastore tool. You can provide the resource_id and use the q parameter for a full-text search or filters for specific field matching.
What information is included in the resource metadata?
The get_resource tool returns the file format (CSV, PDF, etc.), the creation date, the last modification date, and the direct download URL for the data file.
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.
