Overview

What is Bifrost - VSCode Dev Tools MCP Server?

This VS Code extension provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes VSCode’s development tools and language features to AI assistants. It enables advanced code navigation, analysis, and manipulation for developers using AI coding tools that support the MCP protocol.

How to use Bifrost - VSCode Dev Tools MCP Server?

Install the extension from the VS Code marketplace, then install language-specific extensions for your project. The server starts automatically on port 8008 (configurable via bifrost.config.json). Configure your MCP‑compatible AI assistant to connect to http://localhost:8008/sse for SSE and http://localhost:8008/message for messages. For multiple projects, create a bifrost.config.json per project with a unique port and path.

What are the runtime requirements?

Visual Studio Code version 1.93.0 or higher, and appropriate language extensions for your project.

How do I configure multiple projects?

Create a `bifrost.config.json` in each project root with `projectName`, `description`, `path`, and a unique `port` (default 8008). Each project then gets its own SSE and message endpoints.

What transport protocol does the server use?

The server uses HTTP with Server‑Sent Events (SSE). The SSE endpoint is at `/sse` and the message endpoint at `/message`.
