VS Code ARP arp_pulse

How to: VS Code ARP arp_pulse

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

Add ARP to VS Code

  1. 01

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

{
  "servers": {
    "arp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.arp.intuition.box/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

ARP will not start until these are set, so arp_pulse never becomes available.

  • ARP_TARGET
  • ARP_TOOLS

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 11 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.
