Frequently asked questions
Can I send a review request via SMS using the AI?
Yes! Use the send_review_request tool. Provide the Contact ID and set the type to 'sms'. The agent will trigger the SMS request through TrueReview instantly.
How do I see the overall feedback summary for my business?
Run the get_report_summary query. The agent will retrieve a concise report of your review performance and customer satisfaction metrics.
Is it possible to add a new customer contact via AI?
Absolutely. Use the create_contact action. Provide the first name, last name, and email or phone number to register a new customer for future review requests.
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.
