VS Code GrantSonar search_grants

How to: VS Code GrantSonar search_grants

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

Add GrantSonar to VS Code

  1. 01

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

{
  "servers": {
    "grantsonar": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://grantsonar.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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