VS Code OpenQR create_theme

How to: VS Code OpenQR create_theme

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

Add OpenQR to VS Code

01
Open .vscode/mcp.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "servers": {
    "qr": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://openqr.uk/mcp"
    }
  }
}

02
Save the file and restart VS Code.
03
Ask for something create_theme does. VS Code lists the server's tools on connect and calls create_theme itself — you do not invoke it by name.
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that OpenQR'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

OpenQR will not start until these are set, so create_theme 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.
