VS Code - Geekflare

VS Code supports MCP servers through GitHub Copilot’s agent mode (requires VS Code 1.99+). With Geekflare connected, Copilot can scrape pages, search the web, take screenshots, and look up DNS records from within your editor.

Setup

User Settings (Global)
Workspace (.vscode/mcp.json)
Local via npx

Press Ctrl+Shift+P (or Cmd+Shift+P on Mac) and open Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON). Add:

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "geekflare": {
        "type": "http",
        "url": "https://mcp.geekflare.com/YOUR_API_KEY/mcp"
      }
    }
  }
}

Create .vscode/mcp.json in your project root to share the config with your team:

{
  "servers": {
    "geekflare": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.geekflare.com/YOUR_API_KEY/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Do not commit your API key to version control. Use an environment variable or .env file and add .vscode/mcp.json to .gitignore.

Requires Node.js installed locally.

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "geekflare": {
        "type": "stdio",
        "command": "npx",
        "args": ["-y", "@geekflare/mcp"],
        "env": {
          "API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your Geekflare API key.
