{
  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "ws-port",
      "description": "WS_PORT",
      "password": true
    }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "talkback": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "talkback-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "WS_PORT": "${input:ws-port}"
      }
    }

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