VS Code Videogames videogames_get_game

How to: VS Code Videogames videogames_get_game

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

Add Videogames to VS Code

  1. 01

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

{
  "servers": {
    "videogames": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/videogames/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Videogames will not start until these are set, so videogames_get_game never becomes available.

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.
