feiskyer/chatgpt-copilot
ChatGPT Copilot is an open-source Visual Studio Code extension that puts a chat assistant in the editor sidebar and connects it to a wide range of model providers. Model Context Protocol support, added in release 4.7, is one of its headline features: the extension acts as an MCP client so users can bring their own tools into the conversation and let the model call them while answering. For models that lack native function calling, version 4.9 added tool calls implemented by parsing the model output, which extends MCP tool use to back ends that cannot do it directly. The provider list is broad and covers OpenAI including GPT-5, GPT-4o and the o-series reasoning models, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, GitHub Copilot using the built-in VS Code authentication, a Claude Code provider added in 4.10, DeepSeek, Azure OpenAI and Azure AI, locally run models through Ollama, and aggregators such as Groq, Perplexity, xAI, Mistral, Together and OpenRouter. Configuration is a matter of setting an API key, an optional base URL and a model name in the extension settings, and the README documents the exact values for each provider. Around the chat itself the extension offers file and image attachment with the @ syntax, streaming answers in the sidebar, a prompt manager searched with #, custom prompt prefixes, editable and resendable prompts, one-click code insertion or file creation from suggestions, and export of the whole conversation history as Markdown. The author stresses that the extension collects no usage data. It installs from the Visual Studio Marketplace or by searching for ChatGPT Copilot inside the extensions pane, and requires a reload of VS Code afterwards. For a list of MCP projects it is relevant as an IDE-side MCP client rather than as a server.
