C# MCP Server Debugging

Run, debug, and interactively test C# MCP servers. Covers local execution, IDE debugging with breakpoints, MCP Inspector for protocol-level testing, and GitHub Copilot Agent Mode integration.

When to Use

  • Running an MCP server locally for the first time

  • Configuring VS Code or Visual Studio to debug an MCP server

  • Testing tools interactively with MCP Inspector

  • Verifying tools appear in GitHub Copilot Agent Mode

  • Diagnosing issues: tools not discovered, protocol errors, server crashes

  • Setting up mcp.json or .mcp.json configuration

Stop Signals

  • No project yet? → Use mcp-csharp-create first

  • Need automated tests? → Use mcp-csharp-test

  • Production deployment issue? → Use mcp-csharp-publish
