What is the TAPD MCP Server?
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your agile development lifecycle with TAPD, the professional collaboration platform by Tencent. By connecting TAPD to your agent, you transform complex requirement tracking, bug management, and iteration planning into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly list your workspaces, create new stories, track defects, and even monitor sprint progress without you ever needing to navigate the complex TAPD enterprise interface. Whether you are following Scrum or Kanban, your agent acts as a real-time product assistant, keeping your development pipeline organized and your team aligned.
What you can do
- Workspace Management — List all accessible workspaces and retrieve detailed information about your development environment.
- Requirement Tracking — Create and track stories (requirements) with full support for titles and detailed descriptions.
- Defect Management — List and create bugs to keep your quality assurance process moving efficiently.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my TAPD API User and Password?
Log in to TAPD, go to Company Management (公司管理) → Open Integration (开放集成) → API Account Management (API 账号管理), and generate your credentials there.
Can I report bugs directly through the agent?
Yes. Use the create_bug tool. You will need to provide the workspace ID and a title. You can also add a detailed description with reproduction steps for your developers.
What is a 'Story' in TAPD?
In TAPD, a Story represents a product requirement or feature. You can manage these using the list_stories and create_story tools to keep your product backlog organized.
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.
