Using Dust MCP Server with VSCode and Copilot: Issues & Queries
Hi, Does anyone use Dust MCP server in VSCode with Copilot? I’ve seen this doc which doesn’t mention VSCode and mention
If your APIs require authentication, you can pass in headers via query parameters or however headers are configured in your MCP client.
-> Is there any other more recent doc on the topic? By adding
"dust-tt": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://docs.dust.tt/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer sk-XXXX",
}
in my mcp.json file and passing our workspace_id in the chat (adding a header “X-Dust-Workspace-Id” or a wID key in the dict didn’t help) I managed to retrieve the list of all agents on Dust. However:
I can’t find a way to call properly a Dust agent from there : It always fails to call https://dust.tt/api/v1/w/XXXXXXX/assistant/conversations because the wrong structure is used (MCP server isn’t returning the good endpoint info ?)
having to use an api-key instead of Oauth is a pain (I don’t want an admin to generate an api-key for each person using VSCode in the company)
