Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Sauce Labs MCP Server?
Connect your Sauce Labs account to any AI agent to bring your entire test execution landscape directly into your chat workflow. Say goodbye to jumping between CI/CD tools and the Sauce Labs dashboard to investigate failures.
What you can do
- Jobs & Builds — Check the status of recent test builds, drill down into specific job results, and monitor pass/fail ratios
- Incident Management — Programmatically stop hung or failing jobs to free up test concurrency limits instantly
- Infrastructure Metrics — Check your active Sauce Connect tunnels, current account activity, and real-time concurrency metrics
- Platform Support — Browse supported OS and browser combinations (Appium, WebDriver) directly through the agent
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Provide your Sauce Labs Username, Access Key, and operating Region
- Start monitoring your automation suite from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Your AI agent will be able to pinpoint specific build failures, analyze error trace metadata, and keep your software delivery pipeline healthy.
Who is this for?
- QA Engineers — quickly look up the video or log output of a specific failed Selenium/Playwright job without finding it in the dashboard
- DevOps — check active Sauce Connect tunnels and current concurrency limits when tests start queuing unexpectedly
- Developers — verify available browser/OS configurations on the fly when adding a new matrix variable to a test suite

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Sauce Labs data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 11 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI agent stop a runaway test job automatically?
Yes. If you notice a particular build is stuck, you can tell your agent: 'Check the currently running jobs in Sauce Labs and stop any that have been running for more than 40 minutes.' The agent will use list_jobs and conditionally call stop_job on the offending ones to free up your concurrency limit.
How do I securely inspect the exact failure from an automation script?
If a CI action fails, ask the agent to 'List the latest builds.' Note the failing Build ID, request 'Get details for the failing jobs in this build'. The agent can return the exact error message, browser specs, and direct URL to the video session inside Sauce Labs.
Can the agent tell me why my cloud jobs are in a 'queued' status?
Yes. This is a common DevOps question. You can prompt: 'Check our concurrency limits and active tunnels.' The agent will use get_concurrency to see if your team maxed out available nodes and list_tunnels to ensure Sauce Connect hasn’t dropped the connection.
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.
