Connecting GitHub Copilot CLI to the Prepr MCP server

Follow the steps below to add Prepr to GitHub Copilot CLI’s MCP configuration, configure authentication, and test the connection with your first request.

Open the MCP configuration

Open the MCP configuration used by GitHub Copilot CLI.

Follow GitHub’s Copilot CLI MCP server instructions for the current configuration format.

Add the Prepr MCP server

Create a remote server using:

Server URL: https://mcp.prepr.io

Configure authentication

Add an Authorization header containing Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN to the remote HTTP server configuration.

See Connecting with an MCP token to request a token and configure token-based access.

Send your first request
