Add the PagerDuty MCP server to VS Code (GitHub Copilot)
Look up incidents, services, schedules and on-call, and act on incidents.
1. Add the server
Run in your terminal
code --add-mcp '{"name":"pagerduty","command":"uvx","args":["pagerduty-mcp","--enable-write-tools"]}'2. Sign in
VS Code opens the sign-in flow when Copilot first calls a remote OAuth server. PagerDuty runs locally; set any credentials PagerDuty asks for before starting VS Code (GitHub Copilot).
3. Try it
Ask VS Code (GitHub Copilot) for something PagerDuty can do. Look up incidents, services, schedules and on-call, and act on incidents. 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.
