      "description": "FILES_COM_API_KEY",

      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "files-com-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "FILES_COM_API_KEY": "${input:files-com-api-key}",
        "FILES_COM_LOCAL_ROOT": "${input:files-com-local-root}"
      }
    }
  }
}

VS Code prompts for each input the first time the server starts, so no secret is written to the file. VS Code docs
