Use the ElevenLabs MCP server
in VS Code

Generate voiceovers and text-to-speech audio with ElevenLabs from your AI. This guide connects ElevenLabs to VS Code (GitHub Copilot's agent mode) through a governed gateway — one URL that also works in every other MCP client you use, with your rules and a full log attached.

Setup: ElevenLabs in VS Code

VS Code adds MCP servers via MCP server configuration. The gateway route takes about two minutes:

  1. Connect ElevenLabs to your free gate gateway from the verified directory.
  2. On your gate overview, click 'Add to VS Code' — VS Code prompts to add the gateway as an HTTP MCP server.
  3. Confirm and approve the sign-in.
  4. Copilot's agent mode can now use ElevenLabs — logged and governed through your gateway.

What to ask once it’s connected

“Generate a voiceover for this product-demo script.”
“Read this blog post as natural-sounding audio.”
“Create an intro for our podcast episode.”
“Produce a German voice version of this announcement.”

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

The same ElevenLabs connection works in Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor too — no per-client re-wiring.

Rules before regret

Allow, ask, or block every tool ElevenLabs exposes — reads can flow freely while writes require your approval.

Every call logged

A plain-language activity log of everything VS Code did with ElevenLabs — searchable, exportable, auditable.

Scanned and probed

ElevenLabs passed a live handshake probe and a security scan before listing — and drift detection watches it after you connect.
