Connect VS Code with GitHub Copilot to Quest Portal

Add Quest Portal to GitHub Copilot in VS Code from the Command Palette.

The address to use: https://mcp.questportal.com/mcp

Steps from the vendor's documentation. Menu names change, so if a step doesn't match what you see, look for the closest option or check Microsoft's documentation: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/customization/mcp-servers

What you need

  • A Quest Portal account with Core or Pro, including the free trials. With Core your assistant can read your campaigns; with Pro it can also make changes.

  • VS Code with GitHub Copilot signed in.

Set up

Step 1: Add the server. Open the Command Palette and run MCP: Add Server. Choose HTTP, paste the server URL, and give it the ID questportal.

Step 2: Sign in. VS Code opens your browser the first time it connects.

Step 3: Approve access in Quest Portal. A Quest Portal page opens in your browser. Sign in if asked, check what VS Code is asking to use, and click Allow access.

Good to know

  • Check the connection with MCP: List Servers. Remove it from Chat: Open Customizations, under MCP Servers.

  • On Copilot Business and Enterprise, an organization policy has to allow MCP servers. It is off by default.

  • You can install the Quest Portal plugin instead: turn on the chat.plugins.enabled setting and add QuestPortal/plugins as a marketplace.

More fun at the table, less fuss around it

The tavern falls quiet. You spent all week on this villain: the scarred voice, the secret letter, the slow reveal in the final act. Your players have other plans. They have just set fire to the only bridge out of town, the paladin is deep in an argument with a goat, and the rogue has quietly pocketed the letter that was supposed to unravel everything. Somewhere across the river, your villain stands alone in the rain, waiting for an entrance that will never come. The bard leans back, grinning. Four faces turn to you.
