Boarderless

Provides programmatic, zero-configuration integration for the Boarderless Model Context Protocol (MCP) server within Visual Studio Code. This allows native VS Code Ai features (like GitHub Copilot Chat) to read and modify your local, human-visible Boarderless canvas.

Features

• Programmatic MCP Registration: Automatically exposes the Boarderless MCP tools to native VS Code LM/Copilot clients. No manual .vscode/mcp.json editing required.
• Easy Browser Launching: Provides a VS Code command to quickly open Google Chrome/Edge on the required remote-debugging port.
• Settings Integration: Allows custom configuration of the canvas URL, debugging port, and workspace paths directly from VS Code Settings.

Prerequisites

1. Google Chrome / Chromium Browser: Set up with remote debugging active on port 9222.
   • Tip: Use the command palette command Boarderless: Launch Debug Browser to launch this automatically.
2. Authenticated Session: Ensure you are signed in on https://boarderless.app/canvas.

Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

• boarderless.mcp.appUrl: The URL of the Boarderless canvas page (default: https://boarderless.app/canvas).
• boarderless.mcp.browserUrl: The Chrome remote-debugging address (default: http://127.0.0.1:9222).
• boarderless.mcp.workspaceDir: The absolute directory where canonical .bdrl.json snapshots are saved. Defaults to your active workspace folder.

Commands

• Boarderless: Launch Debug Browser (boarderless.launchDebugBrowser): Launches Chrome with remote debugging on port 9222 pointed directly to the canvas.
