What is the PredictHQ Event Intelligence MCP Server?
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire event research and demand auditing workflow with PredictHQ, the authoritative source for intelligent event data. By connecting PredictHQ to your agent, you transform complex event searches into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly search for global festivals, sports matches, and conferences, audit attendance rankings, and query specific location metadata without you ever touching an event portal. Whether you are conducting market demand research or managing regional operational constraints, your agent acts as a real-time event consultant, ensuring your data is always verified and precise.
What you can do
- Event Auditing — Search for thousands of global events by keyword or category and retrieve detailed metadata, including start times and rankings.
- Ranking Oversight — Audit the PredictHQ impact rank for specific events to understand the current industry lead in attendance scale instantly.
- Category Discovery — Browse available event categories like 'concerts', 'sports', or 'festivals' to identify relevant thematic markers for your audience.
- Geographic Intelligence — Retrieve high-resolution location metadata for specific event IDs to assist in deep-dive logistics classification.
- Operational Monitoring — Check API status to ensure your event research workflow is always operational.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my PredictHQ API Key?
Log in to your PredictHQ control center, navigate to the 'API' section, and generate a new token. Copy and paste it below.
What types of events are included?
PredictHQ includes 19 categories of events, from concerts and sports to public holidays and severe weather events.
Can the agent show attendance rankings?
Yes. The get_event_details tool retrieves the PredictHQ Rank, which indicates the expected impact and attendance metadata for an event.
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.
