Frequently asked questions
Can I check the status of a specific timecard using the agent?
Yes! Use the get_timecard tool with the Timecard ID. Your agent will fetch the latest status, including hours worked and approval state.
How do I list all the active contractors in Bilflo?
Simply ask the agent to list_contractors. It will retrieve the directory of all contingent workers registered in your Bilflo account.
Does the integration allow me to approve timecards directly?
Currently, the toolset is focused on querying and auditing (listing timecards, checking statuses). Approving timecards for payroll must be performed within the Bilflo platform for compliance.
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.
