FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an API key?

No! Basic access works without authentication for the next 5 upcoming launches. For full search access and unlimited queries, a premium API key is available from rocketlaunch.live.

How far in advance are launches listed?

Launches are typically listed weeks or months in advance based on official schedules from providers. Dates may change due to weather, technical issues or scheduling conflicts.

Can I filter launches by specific rockets?

Yes! Use get_vehicles to find vehicle IDs, then use search_launches with the vehicle_id parameter to filter by specific rockets like Falcon 9, Starship or Atlas V.

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.
