Frequently asked questions
Can I publish to both X and LinkedIn at the same time?
Yes! When using the publish_immediately tool, you can specify the target platform or let Typefully post to all enabled channels for that social set.
How do I schedule a post for the next available time slot?
Use the schedule_content tool and set the publishAt parameter to 'next-free-slot'. Typefully will automatically place the post in the best upcoming time according to your queue settings.
Is it possible to see the content of an existing draft?
Absolutely. Use the get_draft_details tool and provide the Social Set ID and Draft ID. The agent will retrieve the full text and configuration for that draft.
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.
