Environment / auth
  • MCP_LOG_LEVEL

    Sets the minimum log level for output (e.g., 'debug', 'info', 'warn').

  • CLIPBOARD_READ_ONLY

    Serve the clipboard read-only. When true, clipboard_write is not registered: it is absent from tools/list and uncallable, though still listed in a disabled state on the manifest and landing page. Accepts true/false/1/0/yes/no/on/off.

  • MCP_HTTP_HOST

    The hostname for the HTTP server.

  • MCP_HTTP_PORT

    The port to run the HTTP server on.

  • MCP_HTTP_ENDPOINT_PATH

    The endpoint path for the MCP server.

  • MCP_AUTH_MODE

    Authentication mode to use: 'none', 'jwt', or 'oauth'.

  • MCP_HTTP_MAX_BODY_BYTES

    Maximum inbound JSON-RPC request body in bytes. Defaults to 7 MiB so a full-size clipboard_write survives worst-case JSON escaping; 0 disables the guard.

  • MCP_SESSION_MODE

    HTTP session mode: 'auto', 'stateful', or 'stateless'. 'auto' resolves to 'stateful'. This server defaults to 'stateless'.
