# Connect VS Code

Use the server from GitHub Copilot agent mode.

Add this to `.vscode/mcp.json` in your workspace:

```json
{
  "servers": {
    "motorsdynamic": { "type": "http", "url": "https://gateway.automotivemcp.ai/vehicle-data/mcp" }
  }
}
```

Choose **Start** above the entry. VS Code opens the sign-in page, then lists the tools in agent mode.

## Try it

Ask: "Use MotorsDynamic to look up VIN 1HGCM82633A004352."

## Good to know

- Your calls count against your plan. Free includes 1,000 calls a month.
- The full tool list is on the [MCP server page](https://developers.motorsdynamic.com/docs/mcp).
- Stuck on sign-in? Request a new code. Codes last 15 minutes and work once.
