VS Code SpacePost get_broadcast

How to: VS Code SpacePost get_broadcast

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

Add SpacePost to VS Code

01
Open .vscode/mcp.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "servers": {
    "mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.spacepost.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

02
Save the file and restart VS Code.
03
Ask for something get_broadcast does. VS Code lists the server's tools on connect and calls get_broadcast itself — you do not invoke it by name.
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that SpacePost'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

SpacePost will not start until these are set, so get_broadcast never becomes available.

SPACEPOST_API_KEY
SPACEPOST_READ_ONLY
SPACEPOST_TOOLSETS
SPACEPOST_PERMISSION
SPACEPOST_DEFAULT_FROM

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 11 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.
