MCP configuration is not properly documented #964

Describe the bug

There is no proper reference to add an MCP server. There are many things that are not clear when running /mcp add.

  1. What does each of the server types mean? When should I use a particular server type?
  2. What if I have multiple environment variables? Do I separate them with commas? Should I use quotes?
  3. How do I map an ENV variable to its value? = or : or something else?
  4. Should I use quotes for each tool?
  5. Does the json config support any other options besides the ones mentioned in /mcp add ?

These are just a few from the top of my head.

Affected version

latest

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Add an MCP server

Expected behavior

There shouldn't room for doubts. Either make the setup procedure more informational or make better documentation that is readily available.
