etc.[VisualPro Tech Insight] Intelligent MCP Connection Guide for the Opencode AI Coding Agent & VisualPro

01. VisualPro MCP Integration Overview & Key Values

Opencode is an open-source AI coding agent that connects directly to the VisualPro MCP Server through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) standard. Registration is completed by adding a single JSON block to the configuration file (opencode.jsonc).

02. Prerequisites & Required Environment

03. 5-Step Opencode Integration Guide

STEP 1. Prepare the Opencode App

Install the Opencode app on your PC and launch it.

STEP 2. Edit the Configuration File (opencode.jsonc)

Open the opencode.jsonc file at the path below with a text editor, add the JSON code, and save it. If the file does not exist, simply create it at the same location.

📁 Configuration File Path

💻 opencode.jsonc

{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "mcp": {
    "VisualPro": {
      "type": "local",
      "command": [
        "C:\\Program Files\\VWAY\\MCPServer\\VisualPro.McpServer.exe"
      ],
      "enabled": true,
      "environment": {}
    }
  }
}

STEP 3. Restart the Opencode App

After completing the setup, fully quit and restart the Opencode app. Configuration changes take effect only after a restart.

STEP 4. Verify MCP Registration

Check that the VisualPro MCP Server is registered correctly in Opencode. When VisualPro appears in the MCP tool list, the connection is ready.

STEP 5. Start VisualPro AI Conversational Analysis

With VisualPro running, freely instruct analyses in the Opencode session using natural language such as 'Run FMEA failure mode analysis' or 'Verify Safety Mechanisms'.

04. Cautions & Notes

•  opencode.jsonc uses the JSON (with comments) format. Path separators must be written as double backslashes (\\), e.g., "C:\\Program Files\\..."

•  The VisualPro MCP Server is a local (stdio) executable that runs as a subprocess on your PC — no network access required. (This differs from remote MCP servers that require an HTTPS address.)

•  After editing the configuration file, fully quit and restart the Opencode app for the changes to take effect.

•  VisualPro must be running before you start an analysis.
