What is the Modal (Serverless AI Infrastructure) MCP Server?
Connect your Modal account to any AI agent and take full control of your high-performance AI infrastructure, serverless GPU deployments, and persistent storage through natural conversation.
What you can do
- App Orchestration — List isolated active and historical Modal app contexts to track function execution states and resource allocation directly from your agent
- Deployment Management — Enumerate promoted long-running deployments and retrieve detailed web endpoints and serving configurations securely
- Operational Control — Force stop actively running Modal app executions gracefully via App ID to prevent unnecessary billing cycles and manage system resources natively
- Security & Secret Audit — List stored secret dictionary references and verify environment variable mappings attached to your serverless functions securely
- Storage Visibility — Monitor persisted disk network block volumes and data mount directories used across your distributed compute instances
- Infrastructure Inspection — Deep-dive into specific App or Deployment IDs to retrieve precise JSON metadata representing your infrastructure's current state vectors
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Modal Token ID and Token Secret
- Start managing your high-performance compute from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- AI Engineers — monitor GPU training jobs and verify deployment endpoints through natural conversation without manual CLI polling
- Data Scientists — audit persistent volumes and check function execution logs directly from your workspace terminal
- DevOps Teams — manage serverless secrets and track active app resource usage across multiple Modal projects efficiently
Built-in capabilities (7)
Get static specifics of an exact Modal App ID
Get an explicitly tracked deployment detail mapped bound
List isolated active/historical Modal Apps contexts
List strictly managed Modal platform explicitly promoted deployments
List static secret dictionary configuration references
List Modal persisted disk network block volumes
Force stop an actively running explicit Modal App execution
Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Modal (Serverless AI Infrastructure) data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 7 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
Can I stop a running Modal app through my agent to save costs?
Yes. Use the stop_app tool with an active App ID. Your agent will dispatch a termination command to Modal, gracefully stopping the serverless container spin-up and preventing further billing for that specific execution.
How do I check which web endpoints are active for my deployments?
The list_deployments and get_deployment tools retrieve the Promoted image data. Your agent will expose the public URL endpoints and serving metadata associated with your long-running Modal deployments.
Can my agent audit the secrets and persistent volumes in my workspace?
Absolutely. Use the list_secrets and list_volumes tools to monitor your infrastructure assets. Your agent will report the names and references for your stored secrets and network block storage mounts attached to your compute instances.
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.
