Frequently asked questions
How do I get my Woodpecker API key?
Log in to your Woodpecker account at app.woodpecker.co. Navigate to Settings (gear icon). Click on API keys in the left menu. Click Create new key, give it a descriptive name, and copy the generated key. Paste it below. API access is available on all Woodpecker plans.
Can I automate multi-step follow-up sequences?
Yes. Woodpecker specializes in automated follow-up sequences. Your AI agent can create campaigns with up to 7 follow-up steps, each with customizable delays and personalization variables.
Does it protect my sender reputation?
Yes. Woodpecker includes built-in bounce detection, auto-blacklisting, and sending throttling. Your AI agent can monitor these safety metrics and alert you if deliverability drops below healthy thresholds.
Can I use it for agency clients?
Yes. Woodpecker offers an Agency plan with multi-client management. Each API key is scoped to your account, and you can manage campaigns for all clients from your AI agent.
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.
