Please install the `drain-mcp` MCP server into my current AI client (that's you).

Required prerequisites (do these first if not already done):
- **Polygon wallet with USDC** — You need a Polygon wallet funded with USDC to open payment channels via DRAIN. (https://www.handshake58.com)

Canonical MCP server config (stdio transport):
- command: `npx`
- args: ["-y","drain-mcp"]
- required environment variables:
  - `DRAIN_PRIVATE_KEY`: Polygon wallet private key used to open channels and sign vouchers. Treat as a secret. (example: `<your-polygon-private-key>`)

Add this MCP server to my current client's config in the correct format for you. If you need secrets or credentials I haven't provided, ASK me — do not invent values or leave raw placeholders. After adding it, tell me how to verify the server is connected.
