Install in your client

Paste into the AI you're chatting with — it will figure out the rest

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

Required prerequisites (do these first if not already done):
- **Install janee globally** — Install the janee CLI globally via npm. Run: `npm install -g @true-and-useful/janee` (https://www.npmjs.com/package/@true-and-useful/janee)
- **Initialize config** — Create the default config at ~/.janee/config.yaml. Run: `janee init`

Canonical MCP server config (stdio transport):
- command: `janee`
- args: ["serve"]

Note: Janee is a local secrets-broker MCP server. All API keys are stored in ~/.janee/config.yaml (encrypted) and are NOT passed as env vars at MCP runtime.

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.
