Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Aspose JWT Token?
Log in to the Aspose Cloud Dashboard, go to My Apps, create or select an app, and generate a JWT token using your Client ID and Client Secret.
Can I replace text inside a Word file via AI?
Yes! The replace_text_in_document tool allows your agent to find and update specific strings within documents hosted in your Aspose Cloud storage.
How do I check document page count?
Use the get_document_statistics tool to retrieve word count, page count, and other high-fidelity structural metadata directly from the platform.
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.
