VS Code Outage.Me security_headlines

How to: VS Code Outage.Me security_headlines

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

Add Outage.Me to VS Code

  1. 01

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

{
  "servers": {
    "outage-me": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://outage.me/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Outage.Me'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 14 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.
