How to: VS Code AIS Agent Flight Recorder — dead-man alerts & resume for AI agents fetch_capsule

client:VS Code transport:streamable-http tool:fetch_capsule

Add AIS Agent Flight Recorder — dead-man alerts & resume for AI agents to VS Code

  1. 01

    Open .vscode/mcp.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "servers": {
    "recorder": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.aislabs.ai/recorder/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

    Ask for something fetch_capsule does. VS Code lists the server's tools on connect and calls fetch_capsule itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that AIS Agent Flight Recorder — dead-man alerts & resume for AI agents's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Requires agent mode. MCP: Open User Configuration puts the same block in every workspace. VS Code docs

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
