Description

@aihairgalleria-bit

My agent fails to connect to the vscode-mcp-server tool. It always produces the error: Server not found: 'VSCode Tools'.

I have tried the following troubleshooting steps without success:

  • Manually editing the agent's JSON configuration to specify the correct server name (vscode-mcp-server).
  • Deleting the agent and creating a new one from scratch.
  • Completely uninstalling the AI Toolkit extension, clearing caches, and reinstalling it.

The extension seems to have a hardcoded or incorrectly cached reference to 'VSCode Tools' that cannot be cleared.
