VS Code hugging bay get_artifact

How to: VS Code hugging bay get_artifact

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

Add hugging bay to VS Code

  1. 01

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

{
  "servers": {
    "hugging-bay": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://huggingbay.xyz/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that hugging bay'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

hugging bay will not start until these are set, so get_artifact never becomes available.

  • HUGGING_BAY_API
  • HUGGING_BAY_TOKEN

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.
