About

Get-mcp-keys prevents accidental exposure of API keys in repositories by loading them from a secure file located in the user's home directory. This utility ensures that sensitive credentials are kept out of version control while still enabling seamless integration with Cursor AI and other AI coding assistants using MCP servers. It reads the specified `.mcprc` file, injects the keys as environment variables, and then executes the MCP server command.
