Hi everyone,

I’m experimenting with running the Jira MCP server locally in VS Code alongside GitHub Copilot. My goal is to download a design image from Jira and use it with another tool to compare it against a screenshot of the built feature.

Here’s the issue:

• My agent seems able to fetch the image (I can see it being used in the chat context), but I can’t get it to actually save the file locally.

  

• With Playwright MCP, I can easily take a screenshot and save it to disk, so I know saving works in my setup.

What I’ve tried so far:

• Following all the available configuration steps.

  

• Adjusting the prompts to explicitly ask Copilot to save the file.

• Testing with Claude Sonnet 2.5, Gemini 2.5 Pro, and GPT-4.1 inside Copilot (same results).

Has anyone managed to do something similar: downloading/saving Jira design images via MCP with Copilot?
What options or workarounds should I explore?

Thanks in advance!
