Overview
Manage MCP Servers
You can quickly enable or disable MCP servers using the @ mention feature or through the /mcp command.
Quick Toggle with @mention
Simply type @ followed by the server name in your prompt to toggle an MCP server on or off:
@playwright
This will enable or disable the Playwright MCP server for your current session.
Using the /mcp Command
Alternatively, you can use the /mcp command to manage MCP servers:
/mcp
This opens the MCP management interface where you can view and toggle all configured servers.
💡 This is useful when you want to reduce context usage by disabling MCP servers you're not currently using, or when you need to quickly enable a specific server for a task.
