Frequently asked questions
How do I get my Teamwork Access Token?
Log in to Teamwork, go to your Profile picture > My Profile > Developer, and generate a Personal Access Token.
Can I create tasks with assignees?
Yes! Use the create_task action with a JSON body that includes content, tasklist_id, and responsible-party-ids for assignment.
Can I log time against a project?
Yes! Use the create_time_entry action with a JSON body that includes description, duration (in minutes or seconds), and date.
Can I retrieve project milestones?
Yes! Use the list_milestones action to get all project milestones and their deadlines.
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.
