Visual Studio Code

Before You Begin

• Install the latest JFrog CLI

• Configure your Artifactory instance with JAS entitlements enabled using:

  Shell

  jf c add
  

Installation

1. Open the project you want to use MCP with.

2. Go to View → Command Palette, and select MCP: Add Server.

3. Choose Command (stdio).

4. For Command to run, enter:

   Shell

   jf source-mcp ${workspaceFolder}
   

5. Set the Server ID (e.g., JFrog Source MCP).

6. Choose Workspace Settings.

7. Open the Copilot Chat tab, and enable Agent Mode.

8. Click Select Tools and confirm that JFrog tools appear (initial indexing may take time in large projects).

9. (Optional) Once MCP is set up, try prompting Copilot with:

   • “Do I have SAST vulnerabilities in my code?”
   • “Can you help me fix them?”

Troubleshooting

• If something isn’t working as expected:

1. Open the Command Palette > Show Output Channels.
2. Select the relevant MCP output MCP: {server name}.
3. In Copilot Chat, unfold the MCP tool call to view:
