Connect Toggl Track to VS Code

To use Toggl Track in VS Code, connect your Toggl Track account in Manyplug and add Manyplug to VS Code once. VS Code then gets 9 Toggl Track tools, for example: “Profile”, “Running timer”, and “Time entries”. It takes about 3 minutes and works on the free plan.

Questions

Can I connect two Toggl Track 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 Toggl Track without asking?
By default these actions wait for your approval before they run: “Delete an entry”. Other changes follow your rules, which you can make stricter per account.
Do I need an official Toggl Track MCP server for this?
No. Manyplug connects to Toggl Track 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.
