Cursor usa el mismo esquema mcpServers que Claude Desktop. La configuración del proyecto prevalece sobre la global.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

Continue usa un array de objetos de servidor en lugar de un mapa.

Añádelo a context_servers. Zed recarga en caliente al guardar.

Un solo comando. Verifica con claude mcp list. Quita con claude mcp remove.

Casos de uso

Usos del mundo real: pypict Test Case Generator

Cover a feature with combinatorial inputs without writing 64 tests

👤 QA + devs writing integration tests ⏱ ~15 min intermediate

Cuándo usarlo: Feature has 4+ enum-ish parameters and exhaustive testing would explode.

Requisitos previos

Server/skill installed and authenticated — See repo README

Flujo

Model

Use pypict skill: model checkout with payment_method=[card, paypal, applepay], shipping=[standard, express, intl], discount=[none, code, member], currency=[USD, EUR].✓ Copiado

→ Pict model + ~12 pairwise cases
Generate tests

Emit pytest tests from those cases against checkout().✓ Copiado

→ pytest file with parametrize

Resultado: Real combinatorial coverage with ~12 cases instead of 81.

Errores comunes

Pairwise misses higher-order bugs (3-way interactions). For safety-critical paths, use 3-wise. — Pairwise misses higher-order bugs (3-way interactions). For safety-critical paths, use 3-wise.

Coste y límites

Lo que cuesta ejecutarlo

Cuota de API: See provider docs for rate limits
Tokens por llamada: Varies by tool
Monetario: See repo README for pricing details
Consejo: Cache tool results and avoid repeated identical calls.

Seguridad

Permisos, secretos, alcance

Almacenamiento de credenciales: Use environment variables; never commit secrets

Salida de datos: Tool calls go to the provider's API as documented

Resolución de problemas

Errores comunes y soluciones

pict binary not found

Install Microsoft's pict tool (or pypict bundles it). See pypict README.

Verificar: pypict.exec_pict('test')

constraints rejected

pict constraint syntax is strict: IF [A] = "x" THEN [B] <> "y";. Use the skill's validator.

Verificar: Run validator first
