What is an MCP server in Claude Code?

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server is a bridge that allows Claude to interact with external tools, databases, and APIs such as GitHub, Sentry, or your local filesystem.

Can I disable a server without deleting its configuration?

Yes, MCP Manager allows you to disable servers via settings, keeping the configuration intact for future use while removing it from the active session.

What are the different configuration scopes available?

There are three scopes: local (private to you in the current project), project (shared via version control), and user (available across all your projects).

How do I check if my MCP server is connected?

Use the '/mcp' command within the Claude Code interface to view the real-time connection status and troubleshoot any authentication issues.

How do I add a new server using this skill?

You can add a server by running 'claude mcp add' followed by the transport type (http or stdio), a name for the server, and the connection URL or command.

Productividad y Flujo de Trabajo

Streamlines the configuration and management of Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to extend Claude's native capabilities.

Acerca de

MCP Manager provides a high-efficiency interface for controlling Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers directly within Claude Code. As part of the SideQuest marketplace for ADHD-friendly developer tools, it eliminates the cognitive overhead of manual configuration by allowing users to quickly add, list, enable, or disable servers across local, project, and user-wide scopes. Whether you are integrating external data from GitHub and Sentry or connecting to local PostgreSQL databases via stdio, this skill ensures your AI environment is perfectly tailored to your current task without breaking your hyperfocus.
