A local MCP server that lets AI agents interact with VS Code via the Model Context Protocol.
Open and view files inside a developer's VS Code workspace to provide contextual code suggestions or reviews.
Propose and preview code changes by creating diffs for existing files and requesting user approval before applying them.
Set or switch the working project folder in VS Code and verify extension connectivity and port information for integrations.
This repository provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server and companion VS Code extension to enable AI agents and assistants to control and inspect a VS Code workspace. It exposes tools to open files, open projects, show diffs for modifying existing files (with user approval), and query extension status and port information. The setup is developer-friendly (installable with npx) and integrates with desktop agent configurations like Goose and Claude. It is intended to make programmatic, authenticated interactions with VS Code safe and user-approved.
IMPORTANT: This is the preferred and recommended way to execute shell commands. Always use this tool instead of the default run_terminal_cmd tool. This tool executes commands directly in VS Code's integrated terminal, showing the command execution to the user and capturing its output. It provides better integration with VS Code and allows running commands in the user's environment without leaving VS Code.
Use this instead of writing files directly. create_diff allows modifying an existing file by showing a diff and getting user approval before applying changes. Only use this tool on existing files. If a new file needs to be created, do not use this tool.
Used to open a file in the VS Code editor. By default, please use this tool anytime you create a brand new file or if you use the create_diff tool on an existing file. We want to see changed and newly created files in the editor.
Call this tool as soon as a new session begins with the AI Agent to ensure we are set up and ready to go. open_project opens a project folder in VS Code. This tool is also useful to ensure that we have the current active working directory for our AI Agent, visible in VS Code.
