Frequently asked questions
How many wineries use CellarPass?
CellarPass serves 800+ wineries across Napa Valley, Sonoma, Oregon, Washington, and other premier wine regions. It's the #1 tasting room reservation platform.
Can I flag or review VIP guest history using this integration?
Yes! Your AI can pull visitor profiles and tag high-revenue VIPs, highlighting lifetime spend seamlessly when generating your daily prep reviews.
Does it manage multiple tasting room venues?
Correct. With 'Venues' configuration endpoints natively wired, the AI can cross-reference capacities against your separate tasting properties in a single conversational flow.
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.
