This project is based on the open-source vscode-mcp-bridge project. This project is based on the open-source project vscode-mcp-bridge.

Expose running VS Code instances to AI agents via MCP (Model Context Protocol): agents can read and write files, view LSP diagnostics, execute terminal commands, operate git, and refactor—just like sitting in front of your computer.

Functional Features

27 MCP tools: file read/write, visualization diff, LSP (diagnostic/defining/reference/hover/symbol), full workspace refactoring, terminal management, git state, and more
Dual Transmission Endpoints: /sse (Local Classic SSE) + /mcp (Streamable HTTP stateless, recommended for remote/proxy environments)
Built-in cloudflared external tunnel: exposes local VS Code to the public network (trycloudflare.com) with one click, allowing agents on web versions or other computers to connect
“MCP Bridge Panel”: The real input box displays the current external address (auto-refreshing), and the real button allows one-click copy of address / keyword prompt
Optional Bearer Token Authentication and command whitelist to control access surfaces
Extensions run automatically when VS Code is launched, no manual activation required

Installation

Method 1: Install VSIX from the command line

Method 2: Install via VS Code interface

Open the Extension panel (Ctrl+Shift+X)
Click ··· → at the top right of the panel Install from VSIX
Select vscode-mcp-api-1.0.1.vsix
Reload the window(Ctrl+Shift+P → “Reload the window”)

Verify the installation

After the window is reloaded, the status bar in the lower right corner will display the message MCP :3333; You can also perform a health check:

port default is 3333, default “Fixed Port” policy: address http://127.0.0.1:3333 remains unchanged after reboot. If a port is occupied, a clear error (including occupied processes) will be given, and it will not quietly be delayed; If older versions require delay behavior, mcpServer.portFallback can be enabled.

Configure local MCP clients (Claude Code, Cline, and other MCP-supporting tools):
