FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How do I find my Cnnect API Token?

Log in to the Cnnect Business Portal, navigate to Settings > API, and copy your unique Bearer Token.

02

Can I see real-time analytics for my card taps?

Yes! The get_analytics_summary tool retrieves the most current engagement data including total taps and new lead counts.

03

Can the agent update my LinkedIn link on the card?

Yes, using the update_profile tool, you can programmatically modify any of the social links or contact details on your digital business card.

04

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.

05

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.

06

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.

07

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.

08

MCP tools not available

Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
