Configuring MCP that works in GitHub Copilot to Continue

[foongzy]

Hi all I am trying to connect my mcp to continue. It works on GitHub copilot with the following configs:

{"servers":
    {"MCP":
        {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://...",
            "headers": {
                "Authorization": "Token ...",
                "x-azure-org": "org name",
                "x-azure-project": "proj name"
            }
        }
    }
}

How do I configure this in continue? I tried a few methods with type as streamable-http, then also used requestOptions: headers: and placed those headers too but it didn't work. The error just says connection failed. The documentation on mcp didn't help either: https://docs.continue.dev/customize/deep-dives/mcp

Some configs I tried:

mcpServers:
  - name: MCP
    type: streamable-http
    url: https://....
    env:
        AUTHORIZATION: "Token ..."
        X-AZURE-ORG: "org name"
        X-AZURE-PROJECT: "proj name"

mcpServers:
  - name: MCP
    type: streamable-http
    url: https://....
    requestOptions:
        headers:
            AUTHORIZATION: "Token ..."
            X-AZURE-ORG: "org name"
            X-AZURE-PROJECT: "proj name"

I also tried creating a new folder .continue/mcpServers and creating a mcp.json file with the following configs but in this case, continue didn't even pick up the mcp unlike what other posts mentioned it should:

{"servers":
    {"MCP":
        {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://...",
            "headers": {
                "Authorization": "Token ...",
                "x-azure-org": "org name",
                "x-azure-project": "proj name"
            }
        }
    }
}

Please help, I am at a lost.
