VS Code
MCP SERVER

Use LinkJolt with VS Code

VS Code has built-in MCP support (v1.102+, GA July 2025). Use GitHub Copilot's agent mode to access the LinkJolt MCP server from inside the editor.

Setup
1
One-click install (recommended)

Click the "Install in VS Code" button above. VS Code will prompt you to confirm the MCP server configuration. Replace the placeholder API key with yours after install.

2
Or configure manually

Open the Command Palette (Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+P) → "MCP: Add Server" → choose "stdio" → paste the command below. Alternatively, edit `.vscode/mcp.json` in your workspace or the user-level `mcp.json` directly.

{
  "servers": {
    "linkjolt": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@linkjolt/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "LINKJOLT_API_KEY": "lj_pk_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
3
Enable in Copilot agent mode

Open Copilot Chat, switch to "Agent" mode. The LinkJolt tools appear alongside your other MCP servers. Get an API key at linkjolt.io/merchant/api-keys and paste into the config.
