Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Haystack (deepset Cloud) data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 7 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 test my RAG pipelines directly via my AI agent?
Yes. Use the run_pipeline tool to dispatch a query to any registered pipeline in your workspace. Your agent will return the response from the NLP topology, allowing you to verify retriever performance and LLM grounding without leaving your workspace.
How can I audit my document indexing status?
Ask your agent to list files in your workspace. You can then get specific metadata for any file to ensure embeddings and attributes are correctly attached. This is essential for debugging retrieval issues in production environments.
Is it possible to manage multiple deepset Cloud workspaces?
Absolutely. The agent provides high-level workspace listing, allowing you to navigate across tenant boundaries and isolation zones easily. You just need to provide the workspace name to any pipeline or search command.
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.
