Team-wide tracking in VS Code Copilot

Commit your configuration to the repo so every dev uses `track_event` consistently. It stops teams from having fragmented analytics code. Your whole team can now trigger events through the chat interface. It ensures your product metrics stay aligned across every feature branch.

Identify users via VS Code Copilot

Use `identify_user` to maintain a single source of truth for user attributes in your team's code. It forces your agent to follow the defined schema. Keep your user data clean across the entire organization. Your agent handles the identification calls based on the rules you set.

Automate metric updates in VS Code Copilot

Use `increment_property` to track user growth metrics automatically. It saves your team from writing boilerplate code for basic state changes. Your agent modifies user properties right in the editor. It makes your analytics integration feel like a natural part of the development process.

Setup guide

Set up OpenPanel MCP in VS Code Copilot

Prerequisites

VS Code 1.99 or later with GitHub Copilot extension
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and run "MCP: Add Server". Select HTTP (Streamable) as the server type. VS Code will create .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace.
2

Add the OpenPanel MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into your .vscode/mcp.json. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Switch to Agent mode

Open Copilot Chat (Cmd+Shift+I / Ctrl+Shift+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode — they do not appear in Edit or Ask modes.
4

Verify the connection

In the Copilot Chat input, type # to list available tools. You should see the OpenPanel tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent OpenPanel transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.
