GitHub Copilot × Hail

Two steps. That's the bar.

~60 SECONDS · NO API KEY

Drop Hail into your config

Add the Hail MCP server using the snippet below. Paste it where this client expects MCP servers — the path varies, the shape doesn't.

Command Palette → MCP: Add Server (or edit .vscode/mcp.json)

JSON · .vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "hail": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.hail.so"
    }
  }
}

Click Allow. Then try it.

Reload the client. On first use it pops a browser tab — sign in to Hail (or sign up — takes 30 seconds), click Allow, and tokens flow back to the client. Send the prompt below — if a call is placed, an SMS lands, or an email shows up in the inbox view, you're done.

Copilot Chat: "/agent use hail to email the on-call about the incident."
