VS Code

VS Code (with GitHub Copilot agent mode) supports remote HTTP MCP servers in mcp.json. The installer does not configure VS Code yet, so set it up by hand.

Manual

Create .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace, or run MCP: Open User Configuration from the Command Palette to add it for every workspace:

copy{
  "inputs": [
    { "type": "promptString", "id": "justclaw-it-key",
      "description": "JustClaw-It API key", "password": true }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "justclaw-it": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://justclaw.it.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${input:justclaw-it-key}" }
    }
  }
}

The inputs entry makes VS Code ask for your key the first time the server starts and store it securely, so the key is never written to the file. That makes the workspace file safe to commit.

You can also run MCP: Add Server from the Command Palette, choose HTTP, and enter https://justclaw.it.com/mcp; then add the headers entry above to the server it creates.

Check it

Open the Chat view in agent mode and select the tools button: the justclaw-it tools should be listed. If the server shows an error, use MCP: List Servers, select justclaw-it, and show its output.
