Frequently asked questions
Can I search for subscribers using specific SQL-like attributes?
Yes! Use the list_subscribers tool with the query parameter. You can use SQL expressions to filter by attributes, names, or email patterns directly through the agent.
How do I send a one-off transactional email to a user?
Use the send_transactional action. You just need to provide the subscriber's email or ID and the template ID you wish to use for the message.
Can I stop an ongoing subscriber import if I notice an error?
Absolutely. Use the stop_import tool to immediately halt any active subscriber import process in your Listmonk instance.
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.
