Bring Senar
to VS Code Copilot
Learn how to connect Senar.io to VS Code Copilot and start using 9 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
What is the Senar.io MCP Server?
Connect your Senar.io account to any AI agent and take full control of your augmented reality training orchestration through natural conversation. Senar.io provides a premier platform for VR/AR simulators, and this integration allows you to retrieve training metadata, assign simulators to users, and monitor performance results directly from your chat interface.
What you can do
- User & Trainee Orchestration — List all managed users and retrieve detailed profile metadata, including creating and assigning users to collections programmatically.
- Simulator Lifecycle Management — Access and monitor your AR simulator collections and retrieve detailed module metadata directly from the AI interface.
- Activity & Performance Intelligence — Retrieve real-time training activity logs, including attempts, success rates, and duration data via natural language.
- Session & History Control — Access historical user session history to ensure your training compliance and skill development are always synchronized.
- Operational Monitoring — Track organization-wide training health and manage collection assignments using simple AI commands.
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your Senar Studio Username and Password
3. Start managing your AR training workflows from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more manual user imports or spreadsheet result tracking. Your AI acts as a dedicated training coordinator or LMS assistant.
Who is this for?
- Training Managers — quickly retrieve trainee results and monitor simulator usage without switching apps.
- L&D Teams — automate the assignment of training modules and track skill acquisition via natural conversation.
- Safety Officers — streamline the retrieval of session records and monitor certification compliance directly within the chat.

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Senar.io data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 9 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 automatically assign a new user to a specific simulator collection?
Yes! Use the create_user_and_assign tool. Provide the user details and the Collection ID, and your agent will create the record and grant access instantly.
How do I find a collectionId for my simulators?
In Senar Studio, open your collection; the ID is the numeric value at the end of the URL (e.g., .../Collections/Edit/123).
Are training results available in real-time?
Yes, as soon as a trainee completes a session in the AR simulator, the data is pushed to the API and accessible via the get_activity_data tool.
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.
