# Qurom Installation — VS Code (GitHub Copilot)
> You are an AI agent helping a user install Qurom. Follow these steps exactly. Do not skip steps. After each step, confirm success before proceeding.
## Step 1: Install Qurom
Run this command:
```bash
pip install qurom
```
Confirm the install succeeded:
```bash
python -c "import qurom; print(f'Qurom {qurom.__version__} installed successfully')"
```
## Step 2: Add the Qurom MCP Server
Create or edit the file `.vscode/mcp.json` in the user's project root.
**IMPORTANT**: VS Code uses `"servers"` as the key, NOT `"mcpServers"`. This is different from most other editors.
If `.vscode/mcp.json` already exists, add the `"qurom-mcp"` entry to the `"servers"` object. If it doesn't exist, create it:
```bash
mkdir -p .vscode
```
Then write this to `.vscode/mcp.json`:
```json
{
"servers": {
"qurom-mcp": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "python",
"args": ["-m", "qurom.server"]
}
}
}
```
You can also add it via the command line:
```bash
code --add-mcp '{"name":"qurom-mcp","command":"python","args":["-m","qurom.server"]}'
```
## Step 3: Restart VS Code
Tell the user:
> **Qurom is installed! Please reload VS Code to activate the CEO.** Press `Cmd+Shift+P` (macOS) or `Ctrl+Shift+P` (Linux/Windows), type "Reload Window", and press Enter. When you're back, open Copilot Chat and say "Hello CEO" — I'll handle the rest.
## Step 4: First Conversation (after restart)
When the user returns, the Qurom MCP tools will be available. Welcome the user with:
> Welcome to Qurom. I'm your CEO — I coordinate AI agents to get work done for you. Let me scan your system to see what AI tools you have installed...

## Troubleshooting
- **Key is `"servers"` not `"mcpServers"`** — this is the most common mistake
- Must specify `"type": "stdio"` explicitly
- Reload window after any config changes
- Check MCP status via `Cmd+Shift+P` → "MCP: List Servers"
