Configure Dataverse MCP for GitHub Copilot

This skill configures the Dataverse MCP server for GitHub Copilot with your organization's environment URL. Each organization is registered with a unique server name based on the org identifier (e.g., DataverseMcporgbc9a965c). If the user provided a URL it is: $ARGUMENTS.

Instructions

0. Ask for MCP scope

Ask the user whether they want to configure the MCP server globally or for this project only:

Would you like to configure the Dataverse MCP server:

- Globally (available in all projects)

- Project-only (available only in this project)

Based on their choice, set the CONFIG_PATH variable:

- Global: ~/.copilot/mcp-config.json (use the user's home directory)

- Project: .mcp/copilot/mcp.json (relative to the current working directory)

Store this path for use in steps 1 and 6.
