Wählen Sie Ihren Client

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json · Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "visual-explainer-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/nicobailon/visual-explainer",
        "~/.claude/skills/visual-explainer"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Öffne Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Nach dem Speichern neu starten.

~/.cursor/mcp.json · .cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "visual-explainer-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/nicobailon/visual-explainer",
        "~/.claude/skills/visual-explainer"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Cursor nutzt das gleiche mcpServers-Schema wie Claude Desktop. Projektkonfiguration schlägt die globale.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "visual-explainer-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/nicobailon/visual-explainer",
        "~/.claude/skills/visual-explainer"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Klicken Sie auf das MCP-Servers-Symbol in der Cline-Seitenleiste, dann "Edit Configuration".

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "visual-explainer-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/nicobailon/visual-explainer",
        "~/.claude/skills/visual-explainer"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Gleiche Struktur wie Claude Desktop. Windsurf neu starten zum Übernehmen.

~/.continue/config.json

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "visual-explainer-skill",
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/nicobailon/visual-explainer",
        "~/.claude/skills/visual-explainer"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue nutzt ein Array von Serverobjekten statt einer Map.

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "visual-explainer-skill": {
      "command": {
        "path": "git",
        "args": [
          "clone",
          "https://github.com/nicobailon/visual-explainer",
          "~/.claude/skills/visual-explainer"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

In context_servers hinzufügen. Zed lädt beim Speichern neu.

claude mcp add visual-explainer-skill -- git clone https://github.com/nicobailon/visual-explainer ~/.claude/skills/visual-explainer

Einzeiler. Prüfen mit claude mcp list. Entfernen mit claude mcp remove.
