What is the sevDesk MCP Server?
Grant your conversational AI (like Claude or Cursor) the power of a dedicated German accounting clerk. The sevDesk MCP transforms your LLM into a sophisticated financial nexus capable of creating invoices, querying past-due credit notes, recording vouchers, and tracking your CRM endpoints dynamically. Stop wrestling with browser-based accounting dashboards and let your AI manage your bookkeeping automatically.

Frequently asked questions
Are API-created contacts exactly the same as UI-created ones?
Yes contextually. When you execute the create_contact function natively alongside category parameters (3 stands for customer, 4 for typical suppliers), sevDesk anchors these entries officially inside the identical primary table. Be clear about whether it's an email-lead versus a firm.
Wait, does my generated API Token expire if left unused?
No. The verified 32-character hexadecimal key token possesses an infinite lifeline inherently tied directly, securely, and stubbornly to your primary login account. It decays or dies primarily upon deliberate manual revocation (regeneration) directly executed by you inside your dashboard user settings.
Can I fetch detailed line items from a single invoice ID using this agent?
Absolutely. Querying list_invoices outputs high-level paginated arrays, but invoking the precision extractor get_invoice fed deliberately with a target identifier ID unveils the core metadata array detailing isolated tax mappings, due-date boundaries, and intricate line items.
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.
