FAQPage Schema
How do I verify MCP server health for GitHub Copilot CLI?

You can verify MCP server health by running `python3 scripts/omni.py doctor`, which checks the copilot-omni plugin's MCP layer operational status and confirms the GitHub Copilot CLI integration is functioning correctly.

What is the Model Context Protocol layer in copilot-omni?

The Model Context Protocol layer in copilot-omni provides structured data handling, memory state management, and categorized tools like Memory, State, and Wiki to enhance the GitHub Copilot CLI engineering workflow.

Do I need Python to run MCP tool verification checks?

Yes, you need Python stdlib to run MCP tool verification checks, as the server communication and tools validation scripts rely on Python for executing the health checks and testing tool calls.

How can I list available MCP tools and their categories?

You can list available MCP tools and their categories, such as Memory, State, and Wiki, by using the verification scripts provided by the copilot-omni plugin to inventory the registered Model Context Protocol tools.

How do I test MCP tool calls for state write and read cycles?

To test MCP tool calls for state write and read cycles, use the provided scripts to demonstrate a simple state write and read cycle, confirming the tool functionality and robust interaction with Copilot's capabilities.
