Automate your socials with VS Code
VS Code installs Antwork from a single click, straight into the Copilot chat MCP servers. The one thing that catches people is the extension it rides on.
MCP servers in VS Code run through GitHub Copilot, so the extension has to be installed and signed in.
Connect it
- 01Click Add to VS CodeVS Code opens and prompts you to confirm. The server name, URL and HTTP transport are all carried in the link, so nothing is typed.
- 02Authorize in the browserThe first tool call opens an OAuth consent screen. There is no API key to generate or store in your settings file.
- 03Connect the social accountAsk Copilot chat to connect your account and it returns a connect link per platform. Authorize once and Antwork keeps that token alive.

https://api.antwork.io/mcpantworkThe server speaks Streamable HTTP and authenticates with OAuth 2.1, using dynamic client registration and PKCE. VS Code handles the token exchange for you — all you see is a browser consent screen.
If it does not work
The three things that go wrong most often when connecting VS Code:
- ›Antwork's tools do not appear — restart VS Code after installing. Most clients only read their MCP configuration at startup.
- ›The consent screen keeps reappearing — the session expired or the grant was revoked. Approve it once more; grants last 30 days and refresh silently while you keep using them.
- ›The tools answer but report no accounts — the workspace exists, but no social account is connected to it yet. Connect one in the Antwork web app first.
Your agent already writes. Let it post.
One command, one consent screen, and every connected account is something you can just ask for.
