SocialGTM in VS Code

Add SocialGTM to VS Code and use it from Copilot's agent mode. Check your reply queue without switching windows, and let the agent use your repo when it edits a reply.

Connect it

  1. Add this to .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace, or run MCP: Add Server from the Command Palette and choose HTTP:
    {
  "servers": {
    "socialgtm": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://socialgtm.app/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  2. Start the server from the file or the MCP list. VS Code opens SocialGTM in your browser the first time; log in and choose Allow.
  3. In Copilot Chat, switch to agent mode and ask for your queue.

No API key. You sign in with your SocialGTM account, and the connection works in the workspace you had open when you allowed it.

What you need

VS Code with GitHub Copilot and agent mode turned on.

What to ask

  • “Look at the bug I'm fixing, then find SocialGTM matches from people hitting the same problem. Draft replies but don't approve any.”
  • “What's waiting in my SocialGTM queue? Show me the three best replies with the posts they answer.”

Workspace or everywhere

.vscode/mcp.json adds SocialGTM to one workspace, and you can commit it for your team. For every workspace, run MCP: Open User Configuration and add the same server there.

Approving tool calls

Agent mode asks before it runs a tool, and limiting a server's tools in the config doesn't skip that. Read the draft in approve_draft's confirmation before you allow it.

Managing it

MCP: List Servers shows socialgtm with controls to start, stop or restart it. MCP: Add Server walks you through adding it again.

What it can do

It reads your queue, drafts, matches and mentions, and can write, approve or reject replies, under the same reply limits and safety holds as the SocialGTM app. On X, Reddit and LinkedIn you still post each reply yourself. See everything it can do.

If it doesn’t connect

  • If the server stops with an auth error, run MCP: List Servers, pick socialgtm and restart it to sign in again.

Setup steps follow VS Code docs: MCP configuration.
