Connect GitHub Copilot

GitHub Copilot uses a personal access token for SpecMCP. In Connections, choose GitHub Copilot, generate a token, and copy the supplied configuration.

Create .vscode/mcp.json in the project, or open your VS Code user MCP configuration. Paste the server beneath the servers key, for example:

{
  "servers": {
    "specmcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.specmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" }
    }
  }
}

Reload VS Code, then enable SpecMCP in the Copilot Chat tools picker. Treat the token as a secret and do not commit .vscode/mcp.json when it contains it.
