Frequently asked questions
How do I find my Todoist API Token?
Log in to Todoist on the web, go to Settings > Integrations > Developer, and you will find your API Token there. Copy and paste it into the field below.
Can the agent complete tasks for me?
Yes. Use the close_task tool with the Task ID. Your agent will mark the task as complete instantly and confirm the action.
Is it possible to list tasks from a specific project?
Yes. The list_tasks tool accepts a project_id parameter, allowing your agent to filter and display only the tasks associated with that project.
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.
