如何在 VS Code 中安装 MCP

适合谁？

适合想在 VS Code 中使用 MCP 扩展编码、文档、GitHub、数据库或浏览器自动化的用户。

VS Code MCP configuration JSON

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "filesystem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "./"]
    }
  }
}

Start from servers tagged coding, filesystem, GitHub, docs, or developer.

Use the config generator or copy a trusted listing configuration.

Keep command and args split correctly.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "filesystem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "./"]
    }
  }
}

Reload the window or restart VS Code so the MCP server is detected.

If it does not appear, test the command in a terminal and check extension logs.

Wrong config location

Confirm the extension or client is reading the file you edited.

Runtime missing

Install Node.js, uv, Docker, Python, or the runtime required by the command.

Can I reuse Cursor MCP JSON for VS Code?

Often yes, if the VS Code MCP client expects an mcpServers JSON object.

Should I restart VS Code?

Yes. Reload or restart after changing MCP config.
