Paste it into VS Code
Click Add to VS Code, then paste one prompt into Copilot in agent mode. Copilot asks you to sign in to Crux the first time, then adds the connector.
Add to VS CodeThen ask Copilot in agent modeInstall the Crux connector on this prototype, for my Crux project: find it with listing_projects on the crux MCP server, and ask me which one if there are several. Call prototype_plan on the crux MCP server first and follow its steps. If this folder has no prototype yet, build it from the plan, then install. If it has one, keep it as it is and link it to the plan. Either way finish with install_proof and make every change it lists, committed so deploys carry it. If the crux tools are not available, tell me to run /mcp, pick crux and sign in, then carry on.

Questions
- What does Crux change in my VS Code prototype?
- It adds a small tag to each page and component, so a comment stays on the part it is about, and one script that loads the toolbar. VS Code makes the changes in your code, where you can read them before you publish.
- Do my reviewers need VS Code?
- No. They open the prototype’s link in any browser, on a computer or a phone, and sign in on the Crux button. Reviewers, approvers and viewers take part free.
- Is it free?
- The connector is on every plan, Free included, so you can inspect, comment and approve on your own prototype at no cost. Inviting other people starts with Starter, at $29 a month.
- What happens when the prototype changes?
- Crux follows it. When you open the prototype, Crux picks up new and changed pages and components. Comments and approvals stay on the part they were made on, because each part has its own id in the code.
