GitHub Copilot - SendKit

GitHub Copilot supports MCP servers in agent mode, allowing you to connect SendKit directly to your VS Code workflow.

Prerequisites

VS Code with GitHub Copilot extension installed
Copilot agent mode enabled
A SendKit API key with Full permission

Setup

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.

Reload VS Code

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

Verify the connection

Open Copilot Chat in agent mode and ask:

List all my SendKit domains

You should see Copilot use the SendKit tools to fetch your data.

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.

Example prompts

Create a sender called "Notifications" with username "notifications" on my domain
