FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I find the correct country code for a trade query?

You can use the list_metadata_values tool. Provide the table ID (e.g., 'imports') and the field ID for countries to see a full list of valid USITC country codes.

What classification systems are supported for commodity queries?

The server supports 'hs' (Harmonized System), 'sitc' (Standard International Trade Classification), and 'naics' (North American Industry Classification System) via the query_trade_data tool.

Can I see what data tables are available before querying?

Yes, use the list_metadata_tables tool to retrieve a list of all available data tables and their identifiers from the USITC DataWeb API.

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.
