What is the Statsig MCP Server?
Connect your Statsig project to any AI agent to manage feature rollouts and product experiments through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Feature Gates — Evaluate if a feature is enabled for a specific user or list all project gates
- Dynamic Configs — Fetch JSON configurations and experiments to control app behavior without code changes
- Event Logging — Log custom events for real-time analytics and metric calculation
- Gate Management — Create, update, or delete feature gates directly via the Console API
- Layer Inspection — Evaluate layers and retrieve parameter values for specific users
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Statsig Server Secret Key (for evaluation) and Console API Key (for management)
- Start managing your product experiments from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- Product Managers — check gate statuses and create new feature flags without leaving the chat
- Developers — verify evaluation logic and log test events directly from the IDE
- Data Scientists — inspect experiment configurations and verify metric logging

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Statsig data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 12 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
What is the difference between the Server Secret Key and the Console API Key?
The Server Secret Key is used for evaluation tools like check_gate and get_config. The Console API Key is required for management actions like list_gates or create_gate.
How do I evaluate a gate for a specific user?
Use the check_gate tool. You must provide the gateName and a user JSON object containing at least a userID (e.g., {"userID": "123"}).
Can I log custom events for analytics?
Yes, use the log_event tool to send an array of event objects including name, value, and user metadata to Statsig for real-time metric calculation.
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.
