Frequently asked questions
Can the AI forcefully complete an active marketplace payment transition?
Absolutely. Through the transition_transaction method, your prompt can dictate the order pipeline. Ensure you pass the specific UUID of the order and the explicit, configured transition name (e.g., "transition/accept" or "transition/complete") to force the lifecycle into its subsequent operational phase immediately.
Why use the Integration API instead of the Marketplace API?
Because the Integration API is the unadulterated administrator backend designed for secure backend logic rather than client interfaces. This permits system-level moderation, transaction configuration, and override state.
Can this integration modify review ratings directly?
Currently, the integration specifically implements list_reviews as a query mechanism tailored exclusively around monitoring and auditing capabilities. It does not actively expose a write mutation structurally to alter or destroy existing community integrity ratings.
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.
