Add or fix MCP servers in coding agents and verify access.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# MCP Setup Connect only the MCP capability the task needs, using the installed host's native interface. [MCP implementation](../agent-protocols/references/mcp/GUIDE.md) owns server implementation and [agent-project](../agent-project/SKILL.md) owns shared project layout. ## Workflow 1. **Review the server**: verify its source, transport, tools, credential flow, and requested permissions before launching it; use [host commands](references/host-commands.md) for the matching setup. 1. **Verify**: list the configured server, check its tool surface, and exercise a small read-only call; registration alone does not prove authentication or safe writes. 1. **Use the Google Cloud guide for its products**: read [google-cloud-mcp.md](references/google-cloud-mcp.md) only for those product-specific registrations. ## Gotchas - **Claude default scope is `local`**: the server lands in `~/.claude.json` for this path only; pass `--scope project` to share it through `.mcp.json`. - **Vet repository-provided servers first**: review project MCP files before starting their servers; do not auto-approve every repository-provided server. …

How to install
mdr add fmind/dot/mcp-setup@sha256:323e1a2b3d3f7e41The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.ad68ebd, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
