Frequently asked questions
How do I search for specific records within a data file?
Use the search_datastore tool with the specific Resource ID. You can provide a search string q to filter the records and use limit or offset for pagination.
How can I see the metadata for a specific dataset?
Simply use the show_package tool and provide the name or ID of the dataset. The agent will return full metadata including descriptions, maintainers, and associated resources.
Can I list all the data categories available in the portal?
Yes! The list_groups tool returns all dataset groups or categories available in the Valencia Open Data portal, helping you browse by topic.
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.
