VS Code has a one-click installer, so this takes under a minute.
One-click install
Step 1: Click the button
Go to the Redreach MCP setup page, find the VS Code section, and click Add to VS Code. The installer opens with the server address already filled in. Approve the install.
Step 2: Sign in
On the first connection VS Code asks you to sign in. A browser window opens on Redreach. Sign in if you are not already, click Approve, and you are connected.
Step 3: Check it works
Ask:
List my Redreach projects
If your projects come back, everything is working.
Or add it manually
Run MCP: Add Server from the command palette, or add this to your mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"redreach": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://connect.redreach.ai/mcp"
}
}
}VS Code prompts you to sign in on the first connection, exactly as above.
