The Copilot MCP Client is a VSCode extension that bridges the gap between GitHub Copilot Chat and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. By acting as an MCP client, it allows Copilot to leverage a wide range of MCP tools and resources, creating a more powerful and integrated AI-assisted development experience. Users can manage multiple MCP server connections, automatically discover available tools, and monitor server health, all within the VSCode environment. This integration supports both process-based and SSE servers, offering flexible options for incorporating custom context and tools into the Copilot workflow.
