Add the Lovable MCP server to VS Code (GitHub Copilot)
Create, edit, inspect and deploy Lovable apps, and query their cloud database, from any agent.
1. Add the server
Run in your terminal
code --add-mcp '{"name":"lovable","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.lovable.dev"}'Scopes, env vars, OAuth and limits: VS Code (GitHub Copilot) MCP config guide
2. Sign in
VS Code opens the sign-in flow when Copilot first calls a remote OAuth server. Lovable is hosted by Lovable, so there is nothing to install or keep updated.
3. Try it
Ask VS Code (GitHub Copilot) for something Lovable can do. Create, edit, inspect and deploy Lovable apps, and query their cloud database, from any agent. Approve the first tool call and check the result before allowing write actions automatically.
- · mcp.json uses a top-level servers key, not mcpServers.
- · code --add-mcp installs a server into your user profile from the terminal.
