FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I create a read-only API key for a specific project?

Yes! Use the create_project_api_key tool. You can specify the project_id, a description, and set the read_only flag to true to ensure the key has restricted permissions.

How do I manage the email addresses associated with my account?

You can use create_email to add a new address, update_email to change settings like the default status, and delete_email to remove an address from your profile.

Is it possible to view and decline project invitations via AI?

Yes. Use get_invitation to see the details of a pending invite and decline_invitation if you do not wish to join that specific project.

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.
