Frequently asked questions
How do I get an Everhour API Key?
Log in to your Everhour account, navigate to your user profile settings (top right), and click on API. You can find or generate your unique API Key there.
Can the agent start a new timer?
This integration currently focuses on listing and auditing projects, tasks, and time entries. Starting or stopping live timers should be performed via the Everhour browser extension or mobile app.
Does the integration show real-time budget usage?
Yes, you can use the list_projects_within_budget tool to retrieve current budget utilization rates and identify projects that are approaching their limits.
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.
