VS Code Ray notifications publish_template

How to: VS Code Ray notifications publish_template

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

Add Ray notifications to VS Code

  1. 01

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

{
  "servers": {
    "ray-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://ray-api.gege.mn/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Ray notifications'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

Ray notifications will not start until these are set, so publish_template never becomes available.

  • RAY_API_KEY
  • RAY_MCP_URL

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.
