Install Sketchdex in VS Code

.vscode/mcp.json 

{
  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "sketchdex-vault",
      "description": "SKETCHDEX_VAULT",
      "password": true
    },
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "sketchdex-browser",
      "description": "SKETCHDEX_BROWSER",
      "password": true
    }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "sketchdex": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "sketchdex"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SKETCHDEX_VAULT": "${input:sketchdex-vault}",
        "SKETCHDEX_BROWSER": "${input:sketchdex-browser}"
      }
    }
  }
}

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