Frequently Asked Questions

You connect VS Code to StackOne over MCP with one entry in .mcp.json: a servers key holding "stackone" with "type": "http" and "url": "https://mcp.stackone.com/mcp". Or run MCP: Add Server from the Command Palette. VS Code opens StackOne in your browser: sign in, pick your project and accounts, and authorize. Setup guide.
VS Code stores the StackOne MCP server config in .mcp.json in the workspace, under a servers key — not mcpServers, which other clients use — with each entry carrying its own type (http for StackOne). It's a plain file, so a team can commit it with the repo; it holds only the gateway address, never credentials.
Yes. MCP support in VS Code runs entirely through GitHub Copilot: you need the Copilot extension with Copilot Chat's Agent mode on, since that's the only mode where the agent can call tools — there's no MCP path that bypasses it. Once enabled, VS Code reads servers from .mcp.json. See the setup guide; the same gateway also works in Cursor.
You don't configure each app in StackOne yourself. IT connects the apps and sets the action ceiling for your project. VS Code sends you to a consent screen where you pick which of those accounts and actions to use, narrowing further if you want. Rerun the flow to change it.
Once connected, VS Code can run whatever actions you granted, across 520+ live connectors and 32,000+ tested actions — CRM, HRIS, ATS, ticketing, finance, and more. Tools go live as soon as you authorize, and the tools icon in Agent mode lists what came through. Browse the actions in the directory above.
Your app credentials — GitHub, Salesforce, and the rest — live server-side in StackOne and never reach VS Code or your machine. The gateway address in .mcp.json carries no access on its own, so it's safe to commit with the repo. There's no client ID or secret; VS Code registers itself during the OAuth handshake.
IT can roll out the StackOne MCP connector to a whole team in one pass: connect the apps once, and commit a single .mcp.json entry to the repo instead of briefing people individually. Each person still signs in, picks their own accounts and actions, and authorizes — so nobody exceeds the ceiling IT set.
