## Bob-IDE Configuration
1. Open Bob's MCP Server Settings:
- In Bob's panel, click the **menu icon** (⋯) and select **MCP Servers**
2. Configure MCP Server:
- Check the **Enable MCP Servers** checkbox
- Click **Edit Global MCP Settings** to open the **mcp_settings.json** file and add one of the following configurations:
**Option 1: Using local installation (if you've cloned the repository)**
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"core-cs-mcp-server": {
"command": "/path/to/your/uvx",
"args": [
"--from",
"/path/to/your/cs-mcp-server",
"core-cs-mcp-server"
],
"env": {
"USERNAME": "your_username",
"PASSWORD": "your_password",
"SERVER_URL": "https://your-graphql-server/content-services-graphql/graphql",
"OBJECT_STORE": "your_object_store"
}
}
}
}
```
**Option 2: Installing directly from GitHub (recommended)**
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"core-cs-mcp-server": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"--from",
"git+https://github.com/ibm-ecm/cs-mcp-server",
"core-cs-mcp-server"
],
"env": {
"USERNAME": "your_username",
"PASSWORD": "your_password",
"SERVER_URL": "https://your-graphql-server/content-services-graphql/graphql",
"OBJECT_STORE": "your_object_store"
}
}
}
}
```
3. Check Available Tools:
- In the MCP Server settings page, you should see the **core-cs-mcp-server** loaded with a green indicator. Click it to view all available tools in a dropdown.
> **Important:** To use the MCP Server tools in Bob, ensure you're in **Ask mode**.
> **Note:** The JSON configuration examples above show only the minimum required environment variables. For a complete list of all possible configuration options, refer to the Environment Variables tables above.
