Standardize Paycove billing tasks in VS Code Copilot

Share your Paycove MCP configuration across the entire engineering team by committing a `.vscode/mcp.json` file. Your developers can run `check_paycove_status` directly in VS Code Copilot to ensure everyone is hitting the right environment. Having these Paycove tools available globally means any developer can run `list_invoices` or `get_invoice` inside VS Code Copilot to debug integration issues without needing individual dashboard access.

Provision Paycove profiles from VS Code Copilot

When setting up new integration tests, you can ask VS Code Copilot to run `create_client` to register test accounts in Paycove. This ensures your automated workflows have real Paycove client profiles to interact with. You can verify the creation instantly by running `get_client` or `list_clients` right inside VS Code Copilot. There is no need to jump back and forth between VS Code Copilot and your Paycove billing portal.

Manage the Paycove CPQ lifecycle with this MCP Server

Move deals from proposal to payment without leaving VS Code Copilot. Use `create_quote` to generate custom Paycove pricing packages and share them with sales reps directly from your active workspace. When a client signs off, run `convert_quote_to_invoice` through VS Code Copilot to finalize the Paycove transaction. The server handles the conversion instantly, keeping your internal Paycove financial records clean.

Setup guide

Set up Paycove 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 Paycove 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.

Verify the connection

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