VS Code IranTools (paid) detect_encoding

How to: VS Code IranTools (paid) detect_encoding

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

Add IranTools (paid) to VS Code

  1. 01

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

{
  "servers": {
    "irantools": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://irantools.johnaio281.workers.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that IranTools (paid)'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 21 October 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.
