Frequently asked questions
How often is death data updated?
Weekly. The ONS publishes provisional death registrations every Tuesday for the previous week, with a 11-day reporting lag.
Does it track personal well-being metrics?
Yes, the ONS measures personal well-being across four indicators (O4): life satisfaction, feeling that the things done in life are worthwhile, happiness, and anxiety.
Are population figures based on the Census?
The datasets include both decennial census data and mid-year population estimates, which are updated annually to account for births, deaths, and migration.
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.
