Connect Follow Up Boss to VS Code.

Ace AI is the FUB-native real-estate copilot. VS Code's native MCP support means a one-click vscode:mcp/install deeplink wires Follow Up Boss into your editor — 189 tools to search contacts, draft messages, run Zillow workflows, and grade leads from the chat panel. Built for realtors and brokerage devs.

Before you start: The MCP connector requires an Ace Pro seat ($55/mo). Sign up free first. Then, if your team pays for your seat, ask your admin to move you to Ace Pro from the Seats page; if you pay for your own seat, upgrade it yourself. Each agent also connects their own Follow Up Boss login in Ace once, so the connector only sees what Follow Up Boss lets you see.

  1. Click the install button.

    The deeplink opens VS Code (or VS Code Insiders) and pre-fills the MCP server config under your user settings.

  2. Or, drop a workspace config at .vscode/mcp.json.

    If you'd rather scope Ace to a single project (or check it into source control for your team), put this file at the root of your workspace:

    {
  "servers": {
    "followupace": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://followupace.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

    User-scope alternative: open settings.json and add the same block under chat.mcp.servers.

  3. Sign in with the email on your Ace Pro seat.

    VS Code will start the MCP connection on first use. Sign in with the email on your Ace Pro seat (normally the work email you use in Follow Up Boss) — a 6-digit verification code is mailed to that inbox. Paste it back.

  4. Connect your own Follow Up Boss login (one time).

    Open Ace inside Follow Up Boss (or, in the Ace workspace, Settings → Integrations) and click Connect as yourself, authorizing with your own Follow Up Boss login. The connector answers through it, so it only sees the contacts Follow Up Boss lets you see. Until you do, your first CRM request will ask you to connect.

Why this matters for realtors

VS Code is where your team's tech operator builds your IDX site, custom dashboards, and scripts. Hooking Follow Up Boss into VS Code lets that operator triage Zillow leads, write compliance-checked replies, and read live FUB pipeline data right next to the code that powers the rest of your stack.
