Connect Adobe Marketo Engage to VS Code

Give VS Code governed access to Adobe Marketo Engage’s 118 tools through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.

Set up

Add Adobe Marketo Engage to VS Code in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in VS Code then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Add Adobe Marketo Engage to Runlayer

    Adobe Marketo Engage isn’t in the Runlayer catalog yet, so an admin adds it by its MCP server URL.

  2. 2

    Connect VS Code to Runlayer

    Runlayer’s CLI installs the Runlayer Plugin natively in VS Code; users can also add it over MCP. With direct tool listing turned on for your deployment, Adobe Marketo Engage’s 118 tools show up in VS Code’s own tool list (VS Code 1.103 or newer).

  3. 3

    Sign in to Adobe Marketo Engage

    Sign in the way Adobe Marketo Engage requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Adobe Marketo Engage from VS Code

    Adobe Marketo Engage’s approved tools appear in VS Code. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in VS Code

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what VS Code exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Adobe Marketo Engage call from VS Code passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, VS Code as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Client hooks (available)

    Capture supported prompts, reasoning, local and MCP tool calls, responses, and scanner decisions in real time.

  • Stop a call before it runs (available)

    Runlayer can deny a tool call before VS Code runs it.

  • Block output after it runs (available)

    Runlayer can block a tool’s output before VS Code’s model sees it.

  • Redact output in place (available)

    Runlayer can mask sensitive parts of a tool’s output in VS Code and pass the rest through.
