This pull request introduces significant enhancements to the VS Code MCP extension, focusing on improved security for remote/tunnel access, expanded configuration options, and a richer set of commands and documentation. Key updates include new settings for secure remote connections, a broader and more customizable toolset, new commands for managing tool exposure, and detailed documentation for advanced usage scenarios such as ngrok with Google OAuth.
Security and Remote Access Enhancements:
package.jsonand configuration logic to support secure remote access, includingallowRemoteConnections,authToken, andenableUnsafeTools. These settings allow the extension to safely expose the MCP server over tunnels like ngrok, with authentication enforced via bearer tokens. [1] [2]README.md) with detailed instructions for exposing the MCP endpoint securely to ChatGPT Web using ngrok and Google OAuth, including example ngrok traffic policies and best practices for authentication. [1] [2]Tool Management and Customization:
MCP Server: Inspect vscode.lm.tools,MCP Server: Configure VS Code Tools…, andMCP Server: Configure Built-in Tools…. These commands allow fine-grained control over which tools are available through the MCP server. [1] [2]Developer Experience Improvements:
MCP Server: Connection Infoto quickly view and copy local and ngrok URLs for the MCP server, with automatic detection of ngrok public URLs and dashboard access. [1] [2] [3]ensureDocumentOpento provide more informative error messages when opening documents fails.Internal Refactoring and API Usage:
findTextInFilesAPI for faster workspace text search when available, controlled by a new setting. [1] [2] [3]These changes collectively make the extension more secure, flexible, and user-friendly, particularly for advanced scenarios involving remote access and integration with external clients.
