install PageSpeed Insights MCP Server 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 PageSpeed Insights MCP Server.

paste into

workspace: .vscode/mcp.json  (project root — committed with the repo)

user: ~/.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "pagespeed-insights": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "-p",
        "pino-pretty",
        "-p",
        "pagespeed-insights-mcp",
        "pagespeed-insights-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GOOGLE_API_KEY": "your-google-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

then: VS Code picks up the change. Run 'MCP: List Servers' from the command palette to verify.
