Summary
Announces the general availability of the Azure DevOps Remote MCP Server, a hosted endpoint that provides AI assistants secure, contextual access to Azure DevOps projects. It details the setup process using `mcp.json`, authentication via Microsoft Entra (requiring organizations to be backed by a Microsoft Entra tenant), and lists supported clients like Visual Studio Code with GitHub Copilot, Microsoft Foundry, Microsoft Copilot Studio, Visual Studio, GitHub Copilot CLI, and the GitHub Copilot app. It also mentions that clients requiring dynamic OAuth client registration or client ID Metadata documents in Microsoft Entra are still being worked on, and for those, the local Azure DevOps MCP Server can be used.
