For manual installation, add the following JSON block to your User Settings (JSON) file in VS Code. You can do this by pressing `Ctrl + Shift + P` and typing `Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON)`.
|
||||
For manual installation, you can configure the MCP server using one of these methods:
|
||||
|
||||
Optionally, you can add it to a file called `.vscode/mcp.json` in your workspace. This will allow you to share the configuration with others.
|
||||
**Method 1: User Configuration (Recommended)**
|
||||
Add the configuration to your user-level MCP configuration file. Open the Command Palette (`Ctrl + Shift + P`) and run `MCP: Open User Configuration`. This will open your user `mcp.json` file where you can add the server configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
> Note that the `mcp` key is not needed in the `.vscode/mcp.json` file.
|
||||
**Method 2: Workspace Configuration**
|
||||
Alternatively, you can add the configuration to a file called `.vscode/mcp.json` in your workspace. This will allow you to share the configuration with others.
|
||||
|
||||
> For more details about MCP configuration in VS Code, see the [official VS Code MCP documentation](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/mcp).
