# Semantica — VS Code Plugin > **v0.4.0** — Adds Semantica as an MCP server to VS Code (via GitHub Copilot Chat or any MCP-aware extension). ## MCP Server Setup Add to your VS Code `settings.json`: ```json { "github.copilot.chat.mcp.servers": { "semantica": { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "semantica.mcp_server"] } } } ``` Or if using the VS Code MCP extension directly: ```json { "mcp.servers": { "semantica": { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "semantica.mcp_server"] } } } ``` VS Code will discover all 17 Semantica skills and 3 agents automatically on connection. ## Knowledge Explorer Launch the interactive graph dashboard from the terminal: ```bash semantica-explorer --graph my_graph.json --port 8000 ``` Open `http://localhost:5174` to explore nodes, edges, decisions, SPARQL, lineage, and more. ## Requirements - Python 3.10+ - `pip install semantica`
