What is the Mistral AI MCP Server?
Connect your Mistral AI account to any AI agent and leverage European-built AI models through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Model Discovery — List all available Mistral models with their IDs, capabilities and context windows
- Chat Completions — Send conversations to Mistral models (large, small, codestral, nemo) and receive responses with configurable parameters
- Embeddings — Generate vector embeddings for semantic search, similarity comparison and vector storage
- Content Moderation — Check text for harmful categories (violence, hate, sexual, self-harm) with safety scores
- File Management — List and delete uploaded files used for batch processing and document AI
- Batch Processing — Create, track and cancel batch jobs for cost-effective asynchronous processing
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Mistral AI API Key
- Start using Mistral models from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more switching between API tools to interact with Mistral. Your AI acts as an LLM orchestration layer.
Who is this for?
- Developers — quickly send messages to Mistral models, generate embeddings and moderate content without writing HTTP code
- ML Engineers — discover available models, compare capabilities and batch-process many prompts efficiently
- Content Teams — review model outputs, moderate user-generated content and manage batch processing jobs via conversation
Built-in capabilities (10)
Provide the batch ID. This is useful if you submitted a large batch by mistake and want to stop further processing. Cancel a running batch job
Requires the model ID (e.g. "mistral-large-latest", "mistral-small-latest", "codestral-latest") and messages array in JSON format. Each message must have a "role" ("user", "assistant" or "system") and "content" (text). Optionally set max_tokens, temperature (0-1), top_p (0-1) and tools array for function calling. Returns the assistant's response. Send a chat message to a Mistral model
Requires the input file ID (containing JSONL requests) and the endpoint (e.g. "/v1/chat/completions"). Returns the batch with its ID for tracking. Use list_batches and get_batch to monitor progress. Create a batch processing job
Provide the file ID from list_files. WARNING: this action is irreversible. Delete an uploaded file from Mistral
Requires the model ID and text input (string or array of strings). Returns embedding vectors for each input text. Useful for semantic search, similarity comparison and vector database storage. Generate embeddings using Mistral
Provide the batch ID. Get details for a specific batch job
Each batch shows its ID, status (queued, running, succeeded, failed, cancelled), input/output file IDs and request counts. List batch processing jobs
Files are used for fine-tuning, batch processing and document AI. Each file shows its ID, filename, purpose, size and upload date. List files uploaded to Mistral
Each model returns its ID (e.g. "mistral-large-latest", "mistral-small-latest", "codestral-latest"), display name, capabilities and context window. Use this to discover which models are available and their IDs for use with the chat tool. List all available Mistral AI models
). Requires the input text (string or array). Returns safety scores for each category. Useful for content filtering and safety checks before processing user input. Moderate text content with Mistral
Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Mistral AI data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 10 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Frequently asked questions
How do I get a Mistral AI API Key?
Log in to the Mistral Console, go to API Keys in your workspace settings, click Create new key and copy it immediately. You'll need to set up billing in the admin portal first.
What models are available?
Use the list_models tool to see all available Mistral models. Key models include mistral-large-latest (most capable), mistral-small-latest (efficient), codestral-latest (code specialist), and mistral-embed for embeddings. Each has different context windows, capabilities and pricing.
Can I send multi-turn conversations?
Yes! Pass a messages array with alternating 'user', 'assistant' and 'system' roles. Each message has a 'role' and 'content' field. Mistral will continue the conversation based on the full message history.
Can I moderate content for safety?
Yes! Use the moderate tool with text input. It returns safety scores for categories including sexual, hate, violence, self-harm, criminal and other harmful content. This is useful for filtering user-generated content before processing.
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.
