docs: add VS Code Copilot MCP config

[VIVAAN-DHAWAN]

Summary

• Add GitHub Copilot / VS Code to the MCP client table.
• Document VS Code MCP config using the servers shape instead of mcpServers.
• Note that the agentmemory server should be running first for persistent proxy mode.

Closes #589

Verification

• rg -n "GitHub Copilot|\"servers\"|\.vscode/mcp.json" README.md
• git diff --check

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Documentation
  • Added a GitHub Copilot / VS Code integration entry explaining the different configuration shape, with a concrete configuration example and guidance for using the MCP shim.
  • Clarified startup and proxy behavior: which service to start first when proxying to a persistent server, and when to include or omit environment credentials.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Updates README to document GitHub Copilot / VS Code MCP configuration: adds a table row noting VS Code uses the servers JSON shape, provides a servers-based example for @agentmemory/mcp (stdio) with optional env, and clarifies starting the persistent agentmemory server first for proxying.

Changes

Copilot / VS Code MCP Setup Documentation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Copilot / VS Code MCP configuration documentation README.md	Adds GitHub Copilot / VS Code to the MCP compatibility table, documents that VS Code uses the servers JSON shape (not mcpServers), provides a servers-based example for @agentmemory/mcp using type: "stdio" and optional env, and notes to start the persistent agentmemory server first when proxying.

"I'm a rabbit in the docs, nibbling text with care,
Copilot and VS Code now find their server there.
A servers snippet neat, env kept for guarded door,
Start agentmemory first — the proxy purrs once more." 🐇✨

550-563: ⚡ Quick win

Include optional env keys in the VS Code example for parity and remote/protected setups.

This snippet works locally, but adding AGENTMEMORY_URL/AGENTMEMORY_SECRET avoids confusion and aligns with the rest of the MCP docs.

optional and used when proxying to a remote MCP instead of the local fallback.

[VIVAAN-DHAWAN]

Addressed the CodeRabbit nitpick in d2acca2 by adding optional AGENTMEMORY_URL / AGENTMEMORY_SECRET env keys to the VS Code example and clarifying when to keep or omit the env block. Re-ran rg checks and git diff --check.
