install io.github.freema/mcp-gsheets on VS Code

Requires the runtime declared in the upstream repo — check the README before running. VS Code (Copilot) uses a `servers` root key with an explicit `type` field — different from the `mcpServers` shape used by Claude Desktop and Cursor. Paste the config below, then follow the reload step to register io.github.freema/mcp-gsheets.

paste into
workspace: .vscode/mcp.json (project root — committed with the repo)
user: ~/.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "servers": {
    "mcp-gsheets": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-gsheets@latest"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GOOGLE_PROJECT_ID": "your-project-id",
        "GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS": "/absolute/path/to/service-account-key.json"
      }
    }
  }
}
then: VS Code picks up the change. Run 'MCP: List Servers' from the command palette to verify.
