What is the Memberful MCP Server?
Connect your Memberful account to any AI agent and take full control of your membership site orchestration and subscription efficiency through natural conversation.

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find the details for a specific member by their ID?
Yes! Use the get_member tool with the Member ID. Your agent will respond with complete metadata for the record, including email, plan details, and active subscription status in seconds.
How do I find my Memberful API Key?
Log in to your Memberful account, navigate to Settings > Custom Applications, and click Add New Custom Application to generate your unique secret token.
What is the site name?
The site name is the subdomain of your Memberful URL (e.g., if you log in at my-community.memberful.com, your site name is my-community).
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.
