Frequently asked questions
Can I get a direct download link for a past meeting recording?
Yes. The get_recording_details tool allows your AI agent to retrieve the full metadata for any cloud recording, including a temporary direct download link for the MP4 file.
How do I change the branding colors of my meeting room?
You can use the update_room_theme tool. Provide the room name and your preferred hex color code, and your agent will update the primary branding color for that specific space instantly.
Can I create a room that requires my approval before others can join?
Yes. When using the create_meeting_room tool, you can set the is_locked parameter to true. This ensures the room is locked by default, and participants must 'knock' to be allowed in by the host.
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.
