- Real-time Monitoring — Poll ongoing test runs to track status transitions (QUEUED, RUNNING, FINISHED) and total execution durations
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your k6 Cloud API Token
- Start managing your load tests from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Performance Engineers — trigger load tests and analyze metrics through natural conversation without jumping between dashboards

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Grafana k6 Cloud (Load Testing) data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 10 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Frequently asked questions
Can I see if a load test passed its performance thresholds using my agent?
Yes. Use the get_run_thresholds tool with a specific Run ID. Your agent will retrieve the final evaluation for all defined thresholds in the script, indicating which specific SLOs passed or failed.
How do I start a new k6 Cloud test run through a conversation?
Use the start_test_run tool by providing the Test ID. Your agent will trigger the execution on k6 Cloud infrastructure and return an active Run ID that you can use to track real-time progress.
Can my agent retrieve the raw performance metrics for a completed run?
Absolutely. The get_run_metrics tool allows your agent to aggregate data like http_req_duration, error counts, and total iterations, providing a rapid summary of your application's behavior under load.
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.
