Frequently asked questions
Can I search for specific keywords across all my notebooks?
Yes. The search_notecards tool allows your AI agent to perform a global search across your entire Zoho Notebook account, returning all cards that match your query string instantly.
How do I add a new checklist or note to a specific notebook?
You can use the create_notecard tool. Provide the parent notebook_id, a title, and the content. You can also specify the type as 'text' or 'checklist' to match your organizational needs.
Is it possible to see the full content of a card via chat?
Absolutely. Use the get_notecard_details tool and provide the notebook and card IDs. Your agent will retrieve the full body content and metadata for that specific note.
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.
