Frequently asked questions
Can I check the live score of an ongoing match?
Yes! Use the list_live_matches tool. Your agent will fetch all soccer matches currently in progress along with their real-time scores.
How early are match lineups available?
Match lineups are typically available 45 to 60 minutes before kickoff. Use the get_match_lineup tool with the specific Match ID to retrieve them.
Does the integration support sports other than soccer?
While the current toolset is optimized for soccer (football) match data, the Broadage API supports many sports. Use the list_sports tool to see all available sports in your subscription.
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.
