What is the Vapi MCP Server?
Connect your Vapi account to any AI agent and bring the power of automated voice communication into your standard conversational workspace.
What you can do
- Phone Calling — Send commands instructing the agent to place outbound human-like phone calls and establish web ringing connections through Vapi's PSTN/WebRTC capabilities.
- Call Transcripts — Search through recent call logs, retrieve call details natively, and pull raw voice-to-text transcripts or conversation metrics.
- Persona Engineering — Ask your chat agent to build new Vapi assistants, update their system prompts, change its specific model, or mutate Voice IDs on the fly.
- Squad Routing — List available telephony numbers, tools, and multi-agent squads natively to configure advanced conversational pathways.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Vapi Private API Key
- Start initiating and tracking phone calls from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Your AI agent becomes a robust telephony dispatch center.
Who is this for?
- Sales Engineers — quickly tell the agent to place a demonstration outbound sales call to a prospect's number right from your editor.
- Customer Support Teams — pull the exact voice transcript logic from an unhappy customer call to summarize action items instantaneously.
- Voice AI Developers — tweak TTS voices, change LLM models, or rewrite system instructions for a new assistant iteratively without switching windows.
- Operations Managers — rapidly audit active telephony numbers and connected toolsets across different Vapi environments.

Frequently asked questions
Can the agent place an outbound phone call for me?
Yes! Through the createPhoneCallTool, you can ask your agent: Initiate a phone call to +15551234567 using our 'Sales Assistant' persona. It will format the payload correctly and instruct Vapi to dial the human using the specified AI persona.
How can I read the transcript of an old automated voice call?
Just tell your chat assistant: fetch the transcript details for call ID '3fbea5x...'. The getCallTool reaches into Vapi, extracts the raw audio-to-text transcript logs, and the assistant can even summarize the entire human-to-AI interaction for you.
Can I tweak system prompts or models sequentially in my chat editor?
Yes, especially if you're in an IDE like Cursor. You can iterate: Update Assistant 'Agent A' to use GPT-4o and set its prompt to 'Always be highly overly enthusiastic'. The agent will use the updateAssistantTool to reconfigure the live voice persona instantly.
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.
