VS Code’s chat agent supports MCP servers out of the box. Wire Carousify in and you can draft a LinkedIn post, schedule it, or pull analytics straight from the chat panel — no extension required.

​
Before you start

You’ll need:
  • MCP enabled on the workspace — see MCP overview
  • An MCP key from Manage Workspace › MCP (only shown once, right after creating it)
  • VS Code 1.99 or later

​
Step 1 — Copy your Carousify MCP URL

In Carousify, open Manage Workspace › MCP and use the MCP System Key (or click Create API Key to mint a fresh one). Copy the URL: 
https://app.carousify.com/api/mcp?token=YOUR_MCP_KEY
Treat the MCP URL like a password — Carousify only reveals the full key once.

​
Step 2 — Add Carousify in VS Code

1

Run MCP: Add Server

Open the Command Palette (⌘ Shift P / Ctrl Shift P), type MCP, and pick MCP: Add Server.VS Code Command Palette filtered to MCP commands with MCP: Add Server highlighted
2

Choose HTTP

Pick HTTP (HTTP or Server-Sent Events) — Carousify is a remote server, not a local command.VS Code MCP server type picker with HTTP (HTTP or Server-Sent Events) highlighted
3

Paste the URL

Paste the Setup Link from Step 1 and press Enter. VS Code opens the connection and lists Carousify’s tools in the MCP Servers view.VS Code Enter Server URL prompt with the Carousify MCP URL pasted in

​
Step 3 — Use it in chat

Open the chat panel (⌘ Ctrl I / Ctrl Alt I) in Agent mode and try:
  • “Using Carousify, draft a LinkedIn post recapping today’s commits and schedule it for 9 AM tomorrow IST.”
  • “List my scheduled Carousify posts for this week.”
  • “Pull analytics for the post I published yesterday.”
VS Code surfaces an approval step the first time each tool runs.

​
Disconnect or rotate

  • Disconnect — run MCP: List Servers in the Command Palette and remove Carousify.
  • Rotate the key — delete the row in Carousify’s MCP Keys table, mint a new one, and re-run MCP: Add Server with the new URL.
