Bring Serverless
to VS Code Copilot
Learn how to connect YepCode to VS Code Copilot and start using 6 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
What is the YepCode MCP Server?
Connect your YepCode account to any AI agent and simplify how you automate complex data integrations and serverless workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Process Control — List and trigger serverless processes with custom parameters directly from your agent.
- Execution Monitoring — Track the history and status of your workflow runs to ensure reliability.
- Secret Management — List and verify account secrets used in your automations without exposing values.
- Team Coordination — Query available teams and workspaces to understand your development environment.
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your YepCode API Key
3. Start running and monitoring your serverless automations from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- DevOps Engineers — quickly trigger maintenance workflows or data syncs via simple AI commands.
- Data Analysts — monitor the status of recurring ETL processes and verify secret availability.
- Software Developers — test and run serverless functions during the development cycle without leaving the IDE.

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings YepCode data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 6 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Why teams choose Vinkius for YepCode in VS Code Copilot
The YepCode MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 6 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in VS Code Copilot only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

Frequently asked questions
Can I provide input parameters when running a process?
Yes, the run_process tool accepts an optional JSON object for parameters, allowing you to pass dynamic data to your serverless functions.
How do I check if a process execution failed?
Use the list_executions query. It will return a history of recent runs along with their final status (e.g., success, error, pending).
Is it possible to see the code of my processes via AI?
Yes, you can use the get_process_details tool to retrieve the complete metadata and code configuration for any specific process ID.
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.
