Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find the details for a specific digital business card by providing its slug?
Yes! Use the get_qr_details tool with the record slug (Page Code). Your agent will respond with complete metadata, including contact details and associated campaign info in seconds.
How do I find my QRCodeChimp API Key and Secret?
Log in to your QRCodeChimp account, navigate to Account Settings > API Keys Settings, and you will find your unique API Key and Secret there.
What plan do I need for API access?
API access typically requires a subscription to the ULTIMA plan or above. You may also need to contact support@qrcodechimp.com to activate the API functionality for your account.
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.
