| OS | Path |
|---|---|
| macOS, Linux | ~/.config/github-copilot/intellij/mcp.json |
| Windows | %LOCALAPPDATA%\github-copilot\intellij\mcp.json |
Important: rerun when you switch projects
With PhpStorm and the GitHub Copilot plugin, MCP config is stored in a system-wide location, not per project.The file contains the absolute path to your Laravel project, so you must regenerate it every time you switch projects.
In Boost 1.8 and later,
boost:update does not update the MCP configuration file.WSL support
This package supports the setup where PhpStorm runs on Windows and PHP runs in WSL.Requirements
