Frequently asked questions
Can I send WhatsApp messages through my agent using Bird?
Yes. Use the dispatch_omnichannel_stream tool by specifying your WhatsApp Channel ID. Your agent will handle the formatting and transmit the text payload directly to your customer's WhatsApp inbox securely.
How do I check why an SMS wasn't delivered?
The get_sms_metadata tool allows your agent to retrieve the precise delivery status for any Message ID. You'll be able to see if the carrier rejected the message or if it's currently buffered in their network.
Can my agent monitor my account balance to avoid service interruptions?
Absolutely. Use the get_account_balance tool to retrieve your current funds status. Your agent will report your financial limits, helping you ensure there are enough credits to support your global communication flows.
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.
