  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "lockstep-vendor",
      "description": "LOCKSTEP_VENDOR",
      "password": true
    }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "lockstep": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "lockstep-cli"
      ],
      "env": {
        "LOCKSTEP_VENDOR": "${input:lockstep-vendor}"
