Visual Studio

Connect Visual Studio to NeoStack AI.

Use Visual Studio with NeoStack AI when your Visual Studio AI extension supports MCP servers. The connection goes through the NeoStack bridge, a small stdio MCP binary. Requires NeoStack AI plugin 3.1.8 or newer.

Step 1: download the bridge

Step 2: configure

1. Start Unreal Editor with NeoStack AI enabled.
2. Add a stdio MCP server named unreal in your Visual Studio AI extension, with the command set to the bridge binary path:

{
  "servers": {
    "unreal": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "C:\\path\\to\\neostack-bridge-win64.exe"
    }
  }
}

There are no ports, tokens, or URLs to configure. The bridge finds the running editor and follows restarts.

Notes

• Visual Studio support depends on the AI extension you use; check its docs for where the MCP config file lives.
• If several editors are open, ask the agent to “list unreal projects” and “select” one, or set the NEOSTACK_PROJECT_DIR env var in the server config.
