Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Hiveage API Key?
Log in to your Hiveage account, go to Settings > API, and you will find your unique API key there. This key is used as the username for Basic Authentication.
What is the Hiveage 'Subdomain'?
The subdomain is the unique part of your Hiveage URL (e.g., if you access Hiveage at mycompany.hiveage.com, your subdomain is mycompany).
Can I record a partial payment for an invoice?
Yes! When using the record_payment tool, you can specify any amount in the body_json. Hiveage will automatically update the invoice balance based on the recorded payment.
Is the integration secure for financial data?
Absolutely. The integration uses official Hiveage API keys over HTTPS. Your credentials and billing data are encrypted and stored securely within the Vinkius Cloud infrastructure.
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.
