VS Code integrates MCP with GitHub Copilot through [agent mode](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/chat/chat-agent-mode), allowing direct interaction with MCP-provided tools within your agentic coding workflow. Configure servers in Claude Desktop, workspace or user settings, with guided MCP installation and secure handling of keys in input variables to avoid leaking hard-coded keys.

Install MCP servers from the built-in gallery or configure them in workspace (`.vscode/mcp.json`) or user settings, with secure handling of keys via input variables.
