Settings

Open Settings (Ctrl+,) and search for Vegha, or edit settings.json directly.

vegha.dataDirectory

Default: empty (shared with the desktop app)

Where history, cookies and the secret-manager configuration live. Empty uses the Vegha desktop app’s data folder, so both see the same history and cookies. Set a path to keep the extension’s data separate.

vegha.openRequestsInVisualEditor

Default: true

Open requests from the Collections view in the visual request editor. Set to false to open them as .bru text.

vegha.newUntitledOpensRequest

Default: true

While the Vegha side bar is showing and a request is the active editor, a new untitled file (double-clicking the empty tab bar, or New File) opens an untitled GET request next to it instead of a blank text file.

vegha.codeLens.enabled

Default: true

Show Send and Open in Vegha Editor above requests in .bru text editors.

vegha.mcp.exposeInVSCode

Default: false

Also register Vegha’s MCP server with VS Code’s own MCP support, for agents that use it. Copilot already has the Vegha tools natively, so turning this on shows them twice there. For Claude Code, Cursor and others, use Vegha: Set Up MCP for Other Agents…. See MCP for other agents.

vegha.sidecarPath

Default: empty (the bundled engine)

Path to a vegha-sidecar executable, or a .dll run with vegha.dotnetPath. Use this only to try a different engine build.

vegha.dotnetPath

Default: dotnet

The dotnet executable used when vegha.sidecarPath points at a .dll.

Opening every .bru file in the visual editor

This is a VS Code setting rather than a Vegha one:

"workbench.editorAssociations": { "*.bru": "vegha.requestEditor" }
