Mcp Config

libukai/awesome-agent-skills

If you've ever wondered why MCPs are loading in every Claude Code session and eating your context budget, this is your fix. The key insight: never put MCP servers in the global mcpServers section of ~/.claude.json. Instead, use project-level .mcp.json files so MCPs only load when you're actually working in that project. The skill walks through checking all three config locations (user config, project config, settings.json), moving servers to the right place, and cleaning up permission overrides that can silently re-enable things. It's essentially a field guide to the MCP config priority system, with ready-to-run Python snippets for each cleanup task.
