Built-in capabilities (11)
Acknowledgment does not resolve or clear the underlying condition—it simply records that a human has reviewed the alarm and is aware of it. This updates the alarm state from "unacknowledged" to "acknowledged" in the Forge audit log, which is important for compliance and incident-tracking workflows. Provide the exact alarm ID as returned by get_alarms. Use this during incident response to track which alarms have been seen by the operations team. Acknowledge an active alarm in Honeywell Forge
Alarms cover a wide range of conditions: security breaches (door forced, tailgating), fire and life safety (smoke detector activation, pull station), HVAC faults, and system health warnings. Each alarm record includes severity level, timestamp, source device, description, and acknowledgment status. Optionally filter by building_id to scope results to a single site. Use this to triage active incidents, audit historical events, or identify recurring fault patterns. List active and historical alarms across all buildings or a specific building
Returns comprehensive metadata including HVAC zones, floor plans, linked subsystems (access control, fire life safety, video surveillance), energy targets, and operating schedules. Use this when you need a deep-dive view of a single site before performing operations like checking alarms or querying energy usage. Get detailed information about a specific Honeywell Forge building
The response includes whether the door is currently open or closed, locked or unlocked, and any active fault conditions such as "door held open" or "forced open". This is a read-only, point-in-time snapshot—use it to verify the physical state of a door before granting access or investigating a security event. Get the real-time status of a specific door or access point
Returns aggregated consumption data including total kWh, cost estimates, demand peaks, and breakdowns by subsystem (HVAC, lighting, plug loads). Metrics may be presented as time-series data points with timestamps, allowing trend analysis and comparison against energy budgets. Use this to monitor sustainability KPIs, identify wasteful consumption patterns, or prepare energy audit reports for facility managers. Get energy consumption data for a specific building
Returns data points including zone temperature, setpoint targets, humidity levels, and HVAC equipment status (compressor running, valve position, fan speed). This data is essential for thermal comfort analysis, energy optimization, and proactive maintenance—such as identifying zones that consistently deviate from setpoints or detecting equipment degradation before failure. Use this to diagnose comfort complaints or validate HVAC scheduling changes. Get temperature and HVAC sensor data for a specific building
An access point represents a physical entry device—door, gate, turnstile, or barrier—managed by the Forge access control subsystem. Each record includes the access point ID, name, current lock state, door status (open/closed/forced), assigned access level, and the zone it belongs to. Use this to audit physical security surfaces before running lock/unlock commands or investigating door-forced alarm events. List all access control points (doors, gates, turnstiles) for a building
Each record contains the building identifier, name, address, operational status, and metadata such as time zone and total floor area. Use this tool as the entry point for any building-centric workflow—once you have the building ID you can drill down into access points, alarms, energy metrics, or video feeds. List all buildings registered in Honeywell Forge
Each record represents a camera or NVR channel with metadata including camera name, location within the building, stream URL (RTSP or HLS), resolution, current online/offline status, and recording mode (continuous, motion-triggered, scheduled). Use this to discover which cameras are available for live viewing or forensic review, and to map camera IDs to physical locations before correlating video with alarm events. List available video surveillance feeds for a building
The door will immediately engage its locking mechanism and transition to a secured state. Only authorized credentials holders can override this lock via normal badge or PIN access. Use this when securing a building after hours, during a lockdown event, or to enforce temporary access restrictions. Confirm the door identity with list_access_points before executing. Lock a specific door or access point in Honeywell Forge
The door will disengage its lock and enter a free-access state until explicitly re-locked or returned to its scheduled access control mode. Use this for emergency egress, visitor accommodation, or maintenance access. Always verify the correct access point ID before unlocking to avoid unintended security gaps.

Frequently asked questions
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.
