+## Integration with VS Code
+
+To use the Redis MCP Server with VS Code, you need:
+
+1. Enable the [agent mode](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot/chat/chat-agent-mode) tools. Add the following to your `settings.json`:
+
+```commandline
+{
+  "chat.agent.enabled": true
+}
+```
+
+2. Add the Redis MCP Server configuration to your `mcp.json` or `settings.json`:
+
+```commandline
+// Example .vscode/mcp.json
+{
+  "servers": {
+    "redis": {
+      "type": "stdio",
+      "command": "",
+      "args": [
+        "--directory",
