Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@envibe-mcp list environment variables"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
MCP server for envibe - the missing permission layer between AI agents and your .env.
Add to your AI tool's MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"envibe": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["envibe-mcp"]
}
}
}claude mcp add envibe npx envibe-mcpAdd to claude_desktop_config.json:
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Add to your editor's MCP settings (see main envibe docs for details).

Creates .env.manifest.yaml from your .env.example
Generates .env.ai (filtered view for AI)
Blocks direct .env file access

This is the MCP server component of envibe. It gives AI coding assistants controlled access to your environment variables with 5 access levels:
Level | AI Can See | AI Can Modify |
| Actual value | Yes |
| Actual value | No |
|
| No |
| Format only | No |
| Nothing | No |
Tool | Description |
| List visible variables with access levels |
| Get a variable's value (respects permissions) |
| Set a variable (only |
| Get detailed info including format and example |
| Check which required variables are missing |
Better error messages - When access is denied, get helpful guidance
Format hints - Know what format a variable should be (url, key, number, etc.)
Required var checking - Use env_check_required to guide users through setup
If you need CLI commands like envibe setup -i (interactive mode), envibe view, or envibe generate, install the full package:
npm install -g envibeMIT
