MCP Servers

Connect the outside tools your agents and workflows use. MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers offer ready-made tools — things like file access, web search, or database queries — and this extension lets you add them, keep them connected, and manage them all from one sidebar.

What you can do

• Add a local command-line server or a remote HTTP one, and see it appear in the sidebar with its tool count and status.
• Keep several servers connected at once and manage them in one place.
• Open a server to inspect its tools and try them out (in MCP Explorer).
• Save your connections so they reconnect the next time you open your workspace.

Getting started

• Connecting servers is handled by two companion extensions: install MCP Local for local command-line servers, and MCP Remote for remote HTTP servers.
• Local command-line servers run in the desktop app only. Remote HTTP servers work in both the browser and the desktop app.
