Frequently asked questions
How do I connect my account?
Subscribe and provide two things: your ProofHub Domain (the 'mycompany' part of mycompany.proofhub.com) and your API Key. The API Key is somewhat hidden: log into ProofHub, click your profile picture in the bottom-left corner 5 times straight to reveal the 'API access' option, then generate or copy your key.
Can my agent create tasks directly?
Yes! Just tell your agent the project name (or ID), the to-do list, and the title of the task you want created. It will use the create_task tool to instantly drop that work item into the specified ProofHub list for your team to pick up.
How can I see what the team has been discussing?
Ask your agent to 'list discussions for project X'. It retrieves all recent discussion topics securely, allowing you to stay in the loop on project blockers, decisions, and brainstorming without opening multiple communication tabs.
Can this server pull files and notes?
Yes. Beyond tasks, the agent can query both list_files and list_notes for any given project ID. If someone uploaded project requirements or drafted meeting notes, your AI assistant can surface their metadata and context on demand.
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.
