What is the Ragas MCP Server?
Integrate Ragas with your AI agent to bring professional grade RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) evaluation and tracking into your chat interface. By subscribing to this server, the AI can seamlessly manage datasets and measure LLM performance on demand.
What you can do
- Dataset Management — Upload, list, and organize evaluation datasets directly inside your environment.
- Run Evaluations — Automatically trigger Ragas evaluations on your RAG pipelines and fetch detailed scoring.
- Track Experiments — Monitor and compare iterative improvements by viewing tracked metrics across different agent versions.
- Project Organization — Associate evaluations with specific projects within your Ragas dashboard.
How it works
- Enable the server integration.
- Provide your Ragas Application URL and your generated Application Token.
- Instruct your AI to initiate evaluations or query historical metrics natively from your IDE or chat.
Who is this for?
- AI & ML Engineers — Run pipeline evaluations without context switching to a separate dashboard or writing Python evaluation scripts each time.
- QA Specialists for LLMs — Rapidly examine datasets and benchmark results to ensure hallucination rates remain low.
- Data Scientists — Compare multiple RAG configuration experiments side-by-side using unified metrics.

Frequently asked questions
How do I secure an App Token for Ragas?
Log into your provided Ragas dashboard. In your project's settings or dedicated security section, you will find the ability to generate a new Application Token. Copy it immediately, as it may only appear once.
What format is required to upload a dataset?
The tool uses common array formats through the MCP wrapper. When passing data, the AI maps arrays containing question, ground_truth and contexts natively matching Ragas base requirements.
Does the server evaluate prompts automatically during testing?
Yes. When triggering evaluations, Ragas uses its own sophisticated metrics (like Faithfulness, Answer Relevance) running internally. The MCP server simply pipes these generated reports back to your chat.
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.
