FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How can I check which Forgejo version my instance is running?

You can use the get_forgejo_version tool. It will return the specific version string of your Forgejo instance, which is useful for debugging and feature compatibility checks.

Can I trigger a CI/CD build manually through the AI?

Yes! Use the dispatch_workflow tool by providing the repository owner, name, and the workflow file name. This triggers actions configured with the 'workflow_dispatch' event.

What is required to generate a new API token?

To use the create_token tool, you must have your Forgejo username and password configured in the credentials. This allows the agent to authenticate via BasicAuth and request a new token with your specified scopes.

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.
