Add the Sentry MCP server to VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

Pull Sentry issues, stack traces and events into the agent to debug production errors.

Official serverRemote + localDeveloper tools

1. Add the server

Run in your terminal

code --add-mcp '{"name":"sentry","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.sentry.dev/mcp"}'

2. Sign in

VS Code opens the sign-in flow when Copilot first calls a remote OAuth server. Sentry is hosted by Sentry, so there is nothing to install or keep updated.

3. Try it

Ask VS Code (GitHub Copilot) for something Sentry can do. Pull Sentry issues, stack traces and events into the agent to debug production errors. 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.
