Install Market Data Toolkit in VS Code
What you need first
- VS Code, installed.
- Nothing else: the server runs on its publisher's machines and VS Code connects to it.
Steps
- In your project, create
.vscode/mcp.json, or open it. For every project, run MCP: Open User Configuration from the Command Palette instead. - Add this block. If the file already has
servers, add only the entry inside it.
{
"servers": {
"market-data-toolkit-mcp": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=jdepablos/vinted-search-feed,jdepablos/second-hand-deal-scanner-es,jdepablos/borme-company-feed,jdepablos/spain-boe-auctions,jdepablos/trademark-watch-tmview,jdepablos/insider-trading-feed,jdepablos/clinical-trials-watch,jdepablos/startup-funding-feed,jdepablos/pokemon-card-price-checker,jdepablos/catawiki-deal-finder,jdepablos/patent-watch,jdepablos/airbnb-market-analyzer,jdepablos/booking-hotel-price-analyzer,jdepablos/sec-13f-holdings-feed,jdepablos/sec-8k-events-feed,jdepablos/companies-house-feed,jdepablos/france-company-feed,jdepablos/brand-domain-watch,jdepablos/eu-tender-watch"
}
}
} - Save the file and choose Start above the server's entry, or run MCP: List Servers. Its tools appear in Copilot Chat's agent mode.
Check it worked
Ask VS Code: List the tools of market-data-toolkit-mcp.
If it does not start
- 401 Unauthorized
- The endpoint wants a sign-in or a key. Sign in when VS Code asks.
- Nothing changes after a restart
- The file is not valid JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
