Connect from VS Code (GitHub Copilot Chat + MCP)

VS Code (1.95+) supports MCP servers through GitHub Copilot Chat's agent mode.

Configuration

Add to your workspace's .vscode/mcp.json or user-level mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "presentations-ai": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.presentations.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Reload VS Code. In agent mode, the 5 Presentations.AI tools appear in the tool picker. On first invocation, a browser opens for OAuth sign-in.
