  • Live Transcription — Programmatically invite the Fireflies bot to ongoing Zoom, Google Meet, or Teams calls for real-time recording and documentation
  • Transcript Intelligence — Use 'AskFred' to ask complex natural language questions about specific meeting contents and retrieve instant, high-fidelity answers
  • Asset Management — Upload public audio URLs for automated transcription and manage meeting soundbites to preserve critical conversation clips
  • Organizational Visibility — Retrieve team member directories and account metadata to coordinate meeting knowledge across your entire workspace

How it works

1. Subscribe to this server
2. Retrieve your API Key from your Fireflies.ai settings (Settings > API)
3. Start managing your meeting intelligence from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client

No more manual note-taking or scrubbing through hours of recordings to find a decision. Your AI acts as your dedicated meeting analyst and knowledge coordinator.

Who is this for?

  • Product Managers — instantly retrieve action items and summaries from user research calls using natural language
  • Sales Teams — monitor customer sentiment and identify key pain points from recent demos without leaving your workspace

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How do I find my Fireflies API Key?

Log in to your Fireflies.ai dashboard, navigate to Settings > API, and copy your unique token.

02

What is AskFred?

AskFred is an AI-powered meeting assistant that can answer questions about any of your recorded meetings based on their transcript data.

03

Can I record a meeting that is already in progress?

Yes! Use the add_to_live_meeting tool and provide the join URL. The Fireflies bot will attempt to join the call immediately.

04

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.

05

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.

06

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.

07

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.

08

MCP tools not available

Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
