Connect Sumble to VS Code

Give VS Code governed access to Sumble’s 38 tools through Runlayer, with identity, policy, scanning, and audit on every call.

Set up

Add Sumble 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 Sumble to Runlayer

    Sumble 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, Sumble’s 38 tools show up in VS Code’s own tool list (VS Code 1.103 or newer).

  3. 3

    Sign in to Sumble

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

  4. 4

    Use Sumble from VS Code

    Sumble’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 Sumble 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.
