Frequently asked questions
Can I use this with my self-hosted Umami instance?
Yes. You can provide your custom instance URL and use the login tool to authenticate, or provide a pre-generated API key/token.
How do I track a custom event from the AI?
Use the send_event tool. You'll need to provide the website ID and the url. You can also include optional metadata like name and data objects.
Can I manage other users if I am an admin?
Absolutely. If your credentials have admin rights, you can use admin_list_users, create_user, update_user, and delete_user to manage the instance population.
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.
