Use the Square MCP server
in VS Code

Payments, orders, catalog, and customers from your Square account. This guide connects Square 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: Square in VS Code

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

  1. Connect Square 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 Square — logged and governed through your gateway.

What to ask once it’s connected

“What were yesterday's sales?”
“Find the orders for this customer.”
“Which catalog items sell best this month?”
“Summarize the refunds from the last 30 days.”

Why route it through a gateway

One URL, every client

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

Rules before regret

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

Every call logged

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

Scanned and probed

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