Adding an MCP server

Configuring VS Code

Configure VS Code to add an MCP server to your system.

1. Add inputs.

   Inputs are prompted on first server start, then stored securely by VS Code.

   {
       "inputs": [ 
       { 
         "type": "promptString", 
         "id": "pe-pat", 
         "description": "PE API Key", 
         "password": true 
       } 
       ], 
       "servers": {
           "PE-MCP": {
               "url": "https://<resolvable_Console_address>/mcp",
               "type": "http",
               "headers": { 
                   "X-Authentication": "${input:pe-pat}" 
               } 
           }
       }
   }

2. Click Add Server.
