First complete Steps 1–2 in the Overview to generate your MCP token and copy your MCP server URL.
- In your repository (or globally), create or open
.vscode/mcp.json. - Add the Paradime entry:
.vscode/mcp.json
<mcp-endpoint-url> with your URL from Step 2.
- Reload VS Code. The first time you use Copilot Chat, you’ll be prompted for the Paradime token. Paste in the token from Step 1.
Using
${input:paradime-token} keeps the token out of the file itself — VS Code stores it in its secret store. Don’t commit the file with the token inlined.
