VS Code toolkit mcp server toolkit_hash_value

How to: VS Code toolkit mcp server toolkit_hash_value

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

Add toolkit mcp server to VS Code

  1. 01

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

{
  "servers": {
    "toolkit-mcp-server": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://toolkit.caseyjhand.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that toolkit mcp server'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

toolkit mcp server will not start until these are set, so toolkit_hash_value never becomes available.

  • MCP_LOG_LEVEL
  • TOOLKIT_ENABLE_NET_DIAGNOSTICS
  • TOOLKIT_ENABLE_SYSTEM_INFO
  • TOOLKIT_ALLOW_PRIVATE_NETWORK
  • TOOLKIT_GEO_API_KEY
  • TOOLKIT_GEO_BASE_URL
  • TOOLKIT_GEO_CACHE_TTL_SECONDS
  • TOOLKIT_GEO_RATE_LIMIT_PER_MIN

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.
