Coming soon
GitHub Copilot is not supported yet. This page describes how it will work. Today MegaLens works with Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Gemini CLI and Lovable.
MegaLens + GitHub Copilot COMING SOON
When it launches, MegaLens will check what Copilot writes before it reaches your git history.
Why a separate check
Copilot is a strong coding assistant. MegaLens is meant to sit next to it as a separate check.
One model at a time
Copilot lets you pick from a long list of models, but each review still runs on whichever one you picked. To get a second opinion you would ask the same question twice and compare the answers yourself.
Same agent generates and reviews code
The model that wrote the code is the same one reviewing it. A model reviewing its own code is not an independent check.
How MegaLens will fill it
When it launches, MegaLens will run as an MCP server next to Copilot in VS Code. Same editor, different job.
MCP server alongside Copilot in VS Code
MegaLens will register as an MCP server in your VS Code workspace. Copilot will handle generation. MegaLens will handle independent review.
Models from different companies review independently
Instead of one model checking its own work, MegaLens selects up to four reviewers from different AI companies to review your code. Different training, different blind spots.
A judge checks each finding against the code
A finding is verified only when the judge can quote the code that proves it. Otherwise it is marked unverified or disputed. The report says when that check did not run.
Consolidated, structured findings
Findings include a severity and a next step, and a file and line when you sent the code. Structured output your IDE can act on, not a wall of text.
Setup (early access, not yet supported)
GitHub Copilot is not supported yet. If you want to try it early, the setup wizard can write the config. It only finds VS Code when .vscode/mcp.json already exists in the folder you run it from.
npx megalens-mcp setup
Or paste it yourself:
.vscode/mcp.json
{
"servers": {
"megalens": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://megalens.ai/api/mcp?ide=copilot",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer ml_tok_your_token_here"
}
}
}
}Get your token at megalens.ai/app/settings/mcp. Setup wizard source: github.com/megalens/mcp.
Honest limitations
We'd rather you know this upfront than find out after setup.
Advisory only
MegaLens surfaces findings and recommendations. It does not override Copilot's model selection or intercept its completions. You decide what to act on.
Reviews surface as suggestions in chat, not inline diff comments
Copilot's MCP integration exposes tools through the chat panel. Review findings will appear there as structured suggestions, not as inline annotations in the editor diff view.
MegaLens answers when asked
MegaLens can respond to review requests but cannot proactively inject context into Copilot's workflow. It does not yet gate pull requests automatically. It is also not a linter: it ignores formatting and syntax and looks for logic, security and behaviour bugs.
GitHub Copilot support is coming soon.
Until then, MegaLens works with Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Gemini CLI and Lovable.
