+
+## 📺 Overview
+
+The Azure DevOps MCP Server brings Azure DevOps context to your agents. Try prompts like:
+
+- "List my ADO projects"
+- "List ADO Builds for 'Contoso'"
+- "List ADO Releases for 'Contoso'"
+- "List ADO Repos for 'Contoso'"
+- "List test plans for 'Contoso'"
+- "List teams for project 'Contoso'"
+- "List iterations for project 'Contoso'"
+- "List my work items for project 'Contoso'"
+- "List work items in current iteration for 'Contoso' project and 'Contoso Team'"
+
+## 🏆 Expectations
+
+The Azure DevOps MCP Server is built from tools that are concise, simple, focused, and easy to use. Each designed for a specific scenario. We intentionally avoid complex tools that try to do too much. The goal is to provide a thin abstraction layer over the REST APIs, making data access straightforward and letting the language model handle the complex reasoning.

+
+##### Steps
+
+1. In your project, add a `.vscode\mcp.json` file and add the following:
+
+   ```json
+   {
+     "inputs": [
+       {
+         "id": "ado_org",
+         "type": "promptString",
+         "description": "Azure DevOps organization name  (e.g. 'contoso')"
+       }
+     ],
+     "servers": {
+       "ado": {
+         "type": "stdio",
+         "command": "npx",
+         "args": ["-y", "@azure-devops/mcp", "${input:ado_org}"]
+       }
+     }
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. Save the file, then click 'Start`
+
+   <img src="./docs/media/start-mcp-server.gif" alt="start mcp server" width="250"/>
+
+3. In chat, switch to [Agent Mode](https://code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2025/02/24/introducing-copilot-agent-mode).
+4. Click "Select Tools" and choose the available tools.
+5. We strongly recommend that you create a `.github\copilot-instructions.md` in your project and copy and paste the contents from this [copilot-instructions.md](./.github/copilot-instructions.md) file. This will enhance your experience using the Azure DevOps MCP Server with GitHub Copilot Chat.
+
+#### 🛠️ Installing from source (dev mode)
+
+This installation method is recommended for advanced users and contributors who want immediate access to the latest updates from the main branch. It is ideal if you are developing new tools, enhancing existing features, or maintaining a custom fork.
+
+> **Note:** For most users, installing from the public feed is simpler and preferred. Use the source installation only if you need the latest changes or are actively contributing to the project.
+
+##### Steps
+
+1. Clone the repository.
+2. Install dependencies:
+   ```sh
+   npm install
+   ```
+3. Edit or add `.vscode/mcp.json`:
+
+   ```json
+   {
+     "inputs": [
+       {
+         "id": "ado_org",
+         "type": "promptString",
+         "description": "Azure DevOps organization's name  (e.g. 'contoso')"
+       }
+     ],
+     "servers": {
+       "ado": {
+         "type": "stdio",
+         "command": "mcp-server-azuredevops",
+         "args": ["${input:ado_org}"]
+       }
+     }
+   }
+   ```
+
+4. Start the Azure DevOps MCP Server
+
+   <img src="./docs/media/start-mcp-server.gif" alt="start mcp server" width="250"/>
+
+5. In chat, switch to [Agent Mode](https://code.visualstudio.com/blogs/2025/02/24/introducing-copilot-agent-mode).
+6. Click "Select Tools" and choose the available tools.
+7. We strongly recommend that you create a `.github\copilot-instructions.md` in your project and copy and paste the contents from this [copilot-instructions.md](./.github/copilot-instructions.md) file. This will help your experience when it comes to using the Azure DevOps MCP Server in GitHub Copilot Chat.
