VS Code rent.dev rent_create_gpu_pod

How to: VS Code rent.dev rent_create_gpu_pod

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

Add rent.dev to VS Code

  1. 01

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

{
  "servers": {
    "rent": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.rent.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that rent.dev'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

Set these first

rent.dev will not start until these are set, so rent_create_gpu_pod never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 14 November 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.
