Frequently asked questions
How do I find my API Token?
Log in to your Expansify AI account and navigate to Settings > API Keys to generate and copy your unique access token.
Can the agent generate different types of content?
Yes! Use the generate_ai_content tool and specify the type parameter (e.g., blog_post, tweet, ad) along with your topic prompt.
How do I check the performance of an SEO keyword?
Use the analyze_keyword_seo tool to trigger a technical analysis of any specific keyword to understand its difficulty and ranking potential.
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.
