  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "monkeytype-api-key",
      "description": "MONKEYTYPE_API_KEY",
      "password": true
    },
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "monkeytype-username",
      "description": "MONKEYTYPE_USERNAME",

  "servers": {
    "monkeytype-mcp": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "monkeytype-mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "MONKEYTYPE_API_KEY": "${input:monkeytype-api-key}",
        "MONKEYTYPE_USERNAME": "${input:monkeytype-username}"
      }
    }
  }
}

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