Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Telnyx API Key?
Log in to the Telnyx Mission Control Portal, go to Account Settings > API Keys, and create a new key. Copy and paste it below.
Can the agent check my available balance?
Yes. Use the get_balance tool. Your agent will retrieve your current account balance and credit limit from Telnyx instantly.
Is it possible to send global SMS messages via the agent?
Yes. The send_message tool allows your agent to deliver SMS to any global number using your Telnyx phone numbers, provided your account has the correct messaging profiles.
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.
