Key Capabilities
Team task management in VS Code Copilot
Commit an mcp.json to your repo to share tools like `create_task` and `update_task` with your entire engineering team. Everyone gets the same interface for tracking work. You can use `list_tasks` to ensure your local environment matches the current project state.
Use this MCP Server for project insights
Call `get_project` to pull details for any active assignment. This keeps your team aligned on requirements without leaving the editor. `get_board` provides a snapshot of the current Kanban status. You can use this to plan your next sprint based on actual progress.
Reporting and updates in VS Code Copilot
Use `get_timesheet_report` to track team hours. It makes reporting simple and keeps your project metrics accurate. `add_comment` allows your team to leave notes on tasks directly. This keeps the conversation linked to the code you are currently working on.
