agent mcp list
Lists configured MCP servers and their status (connected/disconnected, source, transport).
agent mcp list opens an interactive menu with all configured MCP servers: name, connection status, configuration source (project or global), and transport method (stdio, HTTP, SSE). In interactive mode /mcp list gives the same overview.
โ WHEN TO USE IT?
Check which MCP servers are currently connected before a task
agent mcp list
โ WHEN NOT TO?
You want to see the parameters of a specific tool, not just the server list
agent mcp list only shows server status, no tool details.
Better: Use agent mcp list-tools <identifier> for a specific server
