Using Copilot? Give it more tools.
Create MCP servers from any app in 60 seconds. Add them in VS Code MCP settings.
GitHub Copilot recently added MCP support in its agent mode. When you use Copilot Chat in VS Code with agent mode enabled, it can call MCP servers to fetch data, run actions, and pull context from external services. But those servers need to exist.
DataFaucet creates MCP servers from any website or API. Browse a site for 30 seconds, deploy, and get a hosted endpoint. Then add it to VS Code:
// .vscode/mcp.json
{
"servers": {
"my-server": {
"type": "sse",
"url": "https://datafaucet.dev/api/mcp/your-server-id/sse"
}
}
}DataFaucet is the fastest way to create custom MCP servers that Copilot agent mode can use. No SDK, no API docs, no backend code.
They create demand. We create supply.
Pick any URL. Browse for 30 seconds. Get a hosted MCP endpoint your AI can call immediately.
No credit card. No code. Free tier includes 3 servers.
