Frequently asked questions
Can the AI accidentally delete all my bookings?
No. The cancel_booking tool only cancels a single specific booking by its ID. It cannot perform bulk deletions or affect account settings. Each cancellation requires an explicit booking ID.
How does authentication work?
You provide your API Key, API Secret, and Company Login. The integration automatically exchanges them for a session token (X-Token) on each request — no manual OAuth setup required.
Can the AI create new bookings or only manage existing ones?
The AI can both create new bookings and manage existing ones. Use create_booking to schedule appointments and cancel_booking to cancel specific reservations by their ID.
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.
