How to: VS Code Zenbooker MCP by usefulapi getting_started

client:VS Code transport:streamable-http prompt:getting_started

Add Zenbooker MCP by usefulapi to VS Code

  1. 01

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

{
  "servers": {
    "zenbooker": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://zenbooker.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

    getting_started is surfaced in the client's prompt or command menu. Unlike a tool, you invoke it deliberately — VS Code will not call it for you.

  3. 04

    If it does not appear, check that Zenbooker MCP by usefulapi is connected and that you are looking at its prompts rather than its tools.

Requires agent mode. MCP: Open User Configuration puts the same block in every workspace. VS Code docs

Same prompt, other clients

Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling prompts/list on 21 October 2026. A listing does not declare its prompts, so asking is the only way to know them, and this is what the server actually offers rather than what its listing claims. Names only are stored; connect the server for each prompt's arguments.
