Frequently asked questions
Can I run a full Lighthouse SEO audit via AI?
Yes! Use the run_lighthouse_audit tool and provide the target URL. Your agent will return scores for Performance, SEO, Accessibility, and Best Practices.
How do I check if my SSL certificate is valid using the agent?
Use the scan_ssl_tls_cert tool. Provide the domain name, and Geekflare will verify the issuer, expiration date, and security protocols used by your site.
Is it possible to see the DNS records for a domain via AI?
Absolutely. Use the get_dns_records query. Provide the URL, and the agent will retrieve A, MX, CNAME, and TXT records registered for that domain.
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.
