It might be a configuration regression.

You can have full tools list by using header configuration like this

{
"github": {
      "url": "https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <PAT>",
        "X-MCP-Toolsets": "all"
      }
    }
}

@jimmy-grande thank you, "X-MCP-Toolsets": "all" in the header did the trick

What is equivalent config for OAuth? I am facing same issue, and yes it is resolved using PAT, but I prefer to use OAuth.

You don't need PAT. Just use the "X-MCP-Toolsets": "all"

Hello! On 10th October 2025, we introduced "Default Toolsets" - a lightweight set of popular tools.

To enable specific toolsets, please use the X-MCP-Toolsets header for Remote GitHub MCP Server, or GITHUB_TOOLSETS environment variable for Local server. A list of toolsets can be found here: readme#available-toolsets. An "all" value can also be used.

Please refer to our announcement discussion post before this breaking change, and v0.18.0 release notes.

I am using oath and added the suggested field
"github": { "url": "https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/", "headers": { "X-MCP-Toolsets": "all" } }
to the global settings.json and .vscode/settings.json without success. get_copilot_space and list_copilot_spaces are not appearing. What am I missing?
