Connect the Autype MCP server to Visual Studio Code with GitHub Copilot.
MCP support in VS Code requires GitHub Copilot and may be in preview. Check the GitHub Copilot documentation for the latest information.

​
Configuration

Add to your .vscode/mcp.json in your project root: 
{
  "servers": {
    "autype": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.autype.com/mcp/",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key from the Dashboard.

​
User-level config

Alternatively, add to your VS Code user settings (settings.json): 
{
  "mcp.servers": {
    "autype": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.autype.com/mcp/",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
Do not commit API keys to version control. Use environment variables or workspace-specific settings instead.

​
Reload VS Code

After adding the configuration, reload VS Code (Cmd+Shift+P → “Developer: Reload Window”) for the changes to take effect.

​
Verify connection

Open GitHub Copilot Chat and ask:
“What Autype tools are available?”
Copilot should list all available Autype tools.
