Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically book a hotel or flight without my interaction?
No. The integration focuses completely on data retrieval, availability checking, and extensive itinerary building. Final booking operations and payment processing are locked and require manual checkout steps through Expedia's secure domains.
How do I easily search for all available properties in a very specific zip code?
Direct your agent to use the search_properties tool providing exact latitude, longitude or targeted region queries. It will instantly return a list of ranked properties fitting your geographic constraints.
Can the integration track flight prices across multiple upcoming months simultaneously?
Yes. This depends on how your AI agent queries the search_flights tool. You can prompt your agent to iteratively call the endpoint across a range of dates, compiling a full pricing comparison table instantly.
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.
