Frequently asked questions
How do I get a Feedly Developer Token?
Log in to Feedly, go to your account settings, navigate to Integrations, and select 'Developer Token' to request your access key.
Can the agent mark articles as read automatically?
Yes! Use the mark_articles_as_read tool and provide an array of article IDs to clear them from your unread list programmatically.
How many articles can I retrieve at once?
The get_stream_contents tool allows you to specify a count (default 20, max 1000) for retrieving articles from a stream.
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.
