Open VS Code Settings: - Windows/Linux: Press `Ctrl + ,` - macOS: Press `Cmd + ,` 2. In the search bar, type "mcp" to filter settings 3. Look for "MCP > Servers: Servers" 4.

Add your MCP server configuration in the JSON: ```json "mcp": { "servers": { "mcp-server-exchange-1234": { "type": "stdio", "command": "python", "args": [ "/path/to/your/mcp_server_exchange.py" ] } } } ``` 6. Save the settings.json file ## Using the MCP Server Exchange Tool Once you have configured the MCP server, follow these steps to use it: 1. In VS Code, switch to Agent Mode - Open Command Palette (`Cmd + Shift + P` on macOS, `Ctrl + Shift + P` on Windows/Linux) - Type and select "Agent: Toggle Agent Mode" 2. Select the MCP Server Tool - Click on the "tools" button in the agent interface - Select "MCP Server: mcp-server-exchange-1234" from the list 3. Using the Currency Converter - Type your conversion request, for example: "convert 10 usd to euro" - The server will process the request with input: ```json { "amount": 10 } ``` - The result will be displayed showing the converted amount in euros Example: Input: "convert 10 usd to euro" Output: 11.50 EUR (based on the exchange rate of 1 USD = 1.15 EUR) ## Note Make sure to replace `/path/to/your/mcp_server_exchange.py` with the actual path to your MCP server implementation.
