MCP Server Setup
I'll help you set up and configure Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers for enhanced Claude Code capabilities.
Arguments: $ARGUMENTS - server name, provider, or configuration type
MCP Overview
Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables Claude Code to connect to external tools and data sources:
- Database access
- API integrations
- File system operations
- Custom tools and services
Token Optimization
Expected range: 400–1,000 tokens (initial), 100 tokens (cache hit)
Caching: Caches MCP server registry in .claude/cache/mcp/servers.json for 7 days.
Early exit: Returns immediately if the requested MCP server is already configured and connected.
Patterns used: Grep-before-Read, early exit, caching
