| MCP servers can be configured at the user level in `~/.copilot/mcp-config.json`, which applies across projects, at the project level in `.mcp.json`, or in the workspace config file `.github/mcp.json`. `.github/mcp.json` is auto-loaded alongside `.mcp.json`. If you used `/mcp search`, the CLI created or updated your user-level `~/.copilot/mcp-config.json`, but understanding the JSON format is useful when you want to customize or share project-level MCP configuration. | ||

| > ⚠️ **Note**: `.vscode/mcp.json` is no longer supported as an MCP config source. If you have an existing `.vscode/mcp.json`, migrate it to `.mcp.json` in your project root. The CLI will show a migration hint if it detects an old config file. |
