Manage the entire ticket lifecycle.

When you commit `.vscode/mcp.json`, your whole engineering team gets access to `list_tickets` and `get_ticket_details`. You can write standardized code that reads all open tickets, then pulls deep details for triage reports. If a new issue comes up, the `create_ticket` tool lets you programmatically log it with required metadata, ensuring no manual steps are missed by any developer.

Build agent-aware team dashboards.

You can use `list_agents` and `get_agent_status` to build internal monitoring tools. The Copilot Chat Agent mode uses this data to verify if sufficient coverage is active before running a deployment or script. This guarantees that any service interaction you code against only happens when the appropriate support personnel are online.

Access knowledge and user records via MCP Server.

The `list_knowledge` tool lets developers pull the current index of all help articles into their project context. This makes building search functions much easier. Similarly, using `list_users`, you can ensure that any script handling customer data has access to a consistent list of valid user IDs across the codebase.

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.
