VS Code

Connect VS Code (GitHub Copilot agent mode) to Sync via MCP.

VS Code with GitHub Copilot supports MCP natively in agent mode and speaks Streamable HTTP directly to https://sync.buzz/mcp.

Prerequisites

  • VS Code 1.95 or newer.
  • GitHub Copilot extension with agent mode enabled.
  • A personal access token (see Connect overview).

Configure

Create or edit .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace:

{
  "servers": {
    "sync": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://sync.buzz/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sync_pat_YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace sync_pat_YOUR_TOKEN_HERE with the token from Account → Tokens.

Open the Copilot chat panel and switch to Agent mode. VS Code prompts you to trust the MCP server the first time — accept. sync now appears in the tool list.

Verify

Ask Copilot in agent mode:

Use the sync tools to list features in this project.

You should see tool calls to sync_status and sync_search returning real data.

Tips

  • Don't commit the token. Move the .vscode/mcp.json entry to user settings (Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+P → "MCP: Open User Settings"), or substitute an env var ("Bearer ${SYNC_TOKEN}") and set it in your shell profile.
  • The token's role on each project follows your membership — no read/ write choice at issue time. Narrow the scope in Account → Tokens if you want Copilot to reach only a subset of projects.
