🌟 Advanced Patterns
Multiple Servers Same Type
{
"mcpServers": {
"project-a": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "../project-a"],
"description": "Project A files"
},
"project-b": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "../project-b"],
"description": "Project B files"
},
"shared-memory": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-memory"],
"description": "Shared knowledge across projects"
}
}
}
Conditional Server Selection
User-level config (~/.qwen/settings.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"global-memory": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-memory"],
"trust": true,
"description": "Global memory across all projects"
}
}
}
Project-level config (.qwen/settings.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"project-files": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "./"],
"trust": true,
"description": "Project-specific files"
}
}
}
📝 Configuration Validation
Check Your Config
# List configured servers
qwen mcp list
# Show server details and schemas
qwen mcp list --schema
# Test connection
qwen mcp list --descriptions
Common Mistakes
❌ Wrong:
{
"mcpServers": {
"server": {
"command": "mcp-server", // Not in PATH
"args": ["./"]
}
}
}
✅ Correct:
{
"mcpServers": {
"server": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "./"],
"description": "Uses npx to ensure server is available"
}
}
}
🎯 Best Practices
- Use descriptive names - Make server purposes clear
- Set appropriate timeouts - Match your server's response time
- Trust local servers - Skip confirmation for your own tools
- Filter tools - Use
includeTools/excludeToolsfor security - Document configs - Add descriptions for team members
- Environment variables - Keep secrets out of configs
- Test independently - Verify servers work before configuring
