Frequently asked questions
How do I format phone numbers for sending SMS?
Phone numbers must include the country code without the 00 prefix. For example: China uses 86 (e.g., 8615800000000), Brazil uses 55 (e.g., 5511999999999), US uses 1 (e.g., 12025551234). The number should be 5-20 digits total. For Chinese domestic SMS, the message must start with a registered signature like [YourBrand].
What's the difference between send_sms and send_international_sms tools?
The send_sms tool uses the standard SMS gateway (smssh.253.com) optimized for Chinese domestic messages and requires pre-registered templates and signatures. The send_international_sms tool uses the international gateway (intapi.253.com) for global delivery outside China, which supports SenderId and doesn't require Chinese-style signatures. International SMS permissions must be separately enabled in your account.
How does the MD5 signature authentication work?
The Chuanglan API uses MD5 signature authentication for security. Your password is NEVER sent in the request body. Instead, it's combined with the request parameters and timestamp (nonce), then hashed with MD5 to generate a sign header. The server validates this signature to ensure request integrity. The framework handles all signature generation automatically — you only need to provide your account and password.
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.
