VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

VS Code supports MCP servers through GitHub Copilot.

Setup

Add to .vscode/mcp.json in your project root:

{
  "servers": {
    "slidev-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.slidev-mcp.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

To make it available in every workspace, run MCP: Open User Configuration from the Command Palette and add the same servers entry there. You can also run MCP: Add Server, choose HTTP, and enter the URL.

VS Code tries Streamable HTTP first and only falls back to the deprecated SSE transport for servers that don't support it.

Usage

Open Copilot Chat in agent mode and ask:
