VS Code Cleat wait_for_code

How to: VS Code Cleat wait_for_code

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

Add Cleat to VS Code

  1. 01

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

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

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Cleat will not start until these are set, so wait_for_code never becomes available.

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.
