Connect PagerDuty to VS Code

To use PagerDuty in VS Code, connect your PagerDuty account in Manyplug and add Manyplug to VS Code once. VS Code then gets 8 PagerDuty tools, for example: “Incidents”, “Incident”, and “Notes”. It takes about 3 minutes and works on the free plan.

Connect PagerDuty Free plan, no card

1. Connect PagerDuty in Manyplug

Click “Connect PagerDuty” and paste the key or app password into Manyplug’s form:

A PagerDuty API key and your user email. Takes about two minutes.

Open PagerDuty → Integrations → API Access Keys and click Create New API Key.How to create a key
Name it Manyplug. Tick Read-only API Key if you only want to read incidents.
Copy the key into the form and enter the email of your PagerDuty user.

EU account? Pick the api.eu.pagerduty.com region.
Opening an incident wakes the on-call people, so it only happens after you confirm.

2. Add Manyplug to VS Code

GitHub Copilot in agent mode.

Click “Install in VS Code” or add the server to .vscode/mcp.json.

Install in VS Code

{
  "servers": {
    "manyplug": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://manyplug.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Start the server in the MCP list and sign in when VS Code asks.

Questions

Can I connect two PagerDuty accounts to VS Code?

Yes. Connect each one in Manyplug under its own name, for example Work and Personal. VS Code can use one of them or all at once.

Will VS Code change anything in PagerDuty without asking?

By default these actions wait for your approval before they run: “Open an incident”. Other changes follow your rules, which you can make stricter per account.

Do I need an official PagerDuty MCP server for this?

No. Manyplug connects to PagerDuty itself with a key or app password you paste into its form, and gives VS Code the tools through one MCP address, together with your other services.

Is it free to connect VS Code to Manyplug?

Yes. New workspaces get 14 days of Pro free, then the free plan keeps going with 150 actions a month and up to 3 connected accounts. No card needed. Paid plans start at $5 a month.

Does VS Code see my passwords or API keys?

No. Keys are entered on Manyplug’s own pages, stored encrypted with a separate key per account, and the AI only receives tool results.
