MCP Client Setup Guides

These guides cover a selection of AI agents and editors; other MCP clients may also work if they support stdio or Streamable HTTP. Follow your client’s documentation for its configuration format. Every guide covers Local stdio setup first (recommended, no rate limit) followed by Remote Streamable HTTP.
