FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I filter products by a specific category like 'T-shirts'?

Yes! Use the list_products tool and provide the category_id. The agent will return only the products belonging to that specific Printful category.

How do I get the exact pricing and stock for a specific size and color?

You should use the get_variant tool with the specific Variant ID. This provides the most granular data including price, stock availability, and specific attributes.

Does this server provide measurements for the products?

Yes, the get_product_sizes tool returns the complete size guide for a product ID, including measurements in both imperial (inches) and metric (cm) units.

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.
