Visual Studio Code supports MCP servers natively. You can connect SendKit to VS Code and use it with GitHub Copilot agent mode or other MCP-compatible extensions.

​
Prerequisites

  • VS Code installed
  • An MCP-compatible extension (e.g. GitHub Copilot)
  • A SendKit API key with Full permission

​
Setup

1

Create the MCP configuration file

In your project root, create or edit .vscode/mcp.json:
{
  "servers": {
    "sendkit": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.sendkit.dev/sendkit",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sk_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
Replace sk_your_api_key_here with your actual API key from the SendKit dashboard.
2

Reload VS Code

Reload the window or restart VS Code to load the MCP configuration.
3

Verify the connection

Open the AI chat in agent mode and ask:
List all my SendKit domains
VS Code uses "servers" as the top-level key (not "mcpServers"). This is different from most other MCP clients.

​
Global configuration

To make SendKit available across all projects, use the command palette and run MCP: Open User Configuration to add the server to your user-level settings.
