Frequently asked questions
Can I see my open opportunities through the agent?
Yes! Use the list_close_opportunities tool. The agent will return all deals, and you can ask it to filter for those in an 'Open' or specific pipeline stage.
How do I check the tasks due for today?
Use the list_close_tasks tool. Your agent will fetch the list of CRM tasks, and you can ask it to identify those with a due date of today.
Where do I find my Close API Key?
Log in to Close, go to Settings, and select API Keys. You can generate and copy a new API key from that section.
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.
