copilot-mcp

par VikashLoomba · VikashLoomba/copilot-mcp

VSCode extension that discovers, installs, and manages MCP servers for GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and Codex CLI — with optional remote Cloud MCP.

copilot-mcp (VikashLoomba) is a VSCode extension (not an MCP server itself) that bundles MCP server management, skills marketplace (skills.sh), and Cloud MCP (remote hosted servers). Useful for VSCode-centric workflows who want a UI over configs.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json  · Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "copilot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "copilot-mcp"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Ouvrez Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Redémarrez après avoir enregistré.

~/.cursor/mcp.json · .cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "copilot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "copilot-mcp"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Cursor utilise le même schéma mcpServers que Claude Desktop. La config projet l'emporte sur la globale.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "copilot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "copilot-mcp"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Cliquez sur l'icône MCP Servers dans la barre latérale Cline, puis "Edit Configuration".

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "copilot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "copilot-mcp"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Même format que Claude Desktop. Redémarrez Windsurf pour appliquer.

~/.continue/config.json
{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "copilot",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "copilot-mcp"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue utilise un tableau d'objets serveur plutôt qu'une map.

~/.config/zed/settings.json
{
  "context_servers": {
    "copilot": {
      "command": {
        "path": "npx",
        "args": [
          "-y",
          "copilot-mcp"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Ajoutez dans context_servers. Zed recharge à chaud à la sauvegarde.

Une seule ligne. Vérifiez avec claude mcp list. Supprimez avec claude mcp remove.
