Frequently asked questions
How can I check if a shipment is at risk of affecting my reputation?
You can use the get_shipment_sla tool with the Shipment ID. It will return the maximum dispatch time allowed to avoid penalties on your seller metrics.
Can the AI help me find the right category for a new product?
Yes! Use the predict_category tool by providing the product title and your site ID (e.g., MLA, MLB). The agent will suggest the most accurate category ID for your listing.
How do I see pending questions from buyers?
Ask the agent to run search_questions using your Seller User ID. It will list the recent questions asked by buyers on your items so you can answer them using answer_question.
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.
