How do I add Zignature to VS Code?

You can add Zignature to VS Code by using the 'MCP: Add Server' command in the Command Palette or by configuring a .vscode/mcp.json file in your workspace.

What version of VS Code supports MCP?

VS Code version 1.99 and above supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP) natively or through extensions like GitHub Copilot.

Does this work with GitHub Copilot?

Yes, when connected via MCP, GitHub Copilot's Agent Mode can use Zignature tools to send and manage documents.
