What is the DeepL MCP Server?
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire multilingual workflow with DeepL, the world's most accurate AI translator. By connecting DeepL to your agent, you transform complex translation tasks into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly translate text between dozens of languages, audit available language pairs, and monitor API usage without you ever touching a technical dashboard. Whether you are localized content or communicating with international teams, your agent acts as a real-time linguistic bridge, ensuring your communication is always precise and professional.
What you can do
- Text Auditing — Translate text into target languages and retrieve detected source language metadata instantly.
- Linguistic Oversight — List all supported source and target languages to maintain a clear view of translation options.
- Usage Intelligence — Monitor your character count and API limits to maintain strict control over your translation budget.
- Glossary Management — List and query configured translation glossaries to ensure consistent brand terminology.
- Contextual Tone Control — Translate text enforcing strict formal, informal, or standard business tones instantly.
- Markup Preservation — Translate HTML elements while safely preserving tag boundaries and web structure.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my DeepL API Key?
Log in to your DeepL account, and you will find your Authentication Key under the 'Account' tab. Copy and paste it below.
Does this work with both Free and Pro API keys?
Yes. This server automatically detects if you are using a Free key (ending in :fx) or a Pro key and routes requests to the correct endpoint.
Can the agent use glossaries?
Yes. You can list your existing glossaries via the get_glossaries tool and identify their IDs to maintain consistency in your agent-led translations.
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.
