       "Monarch Money": {
         "command": "/opt/homebrew/bin/uv",
         "args": [
           "run",
           "--with",
           "mcp[cli]",
           "--with-editable",
           "/path/to/your/monarch-mcp-server",
           "mcp",
           "run",
           "/path/to/your/monarch-mcp-server/src/monarch_mcp_server/server.py"
         ]
       }

   }
   

   Project-level (specific directory):

   Create .mcp.json in your project directory:

   {
     "Monarch Money": {
       "command": "/opt/homebrew/bin/uv",

         "run",
         "--with",

         "/path/to/your/monarch-mcp-server",
         "mcp",
         "run",
         "/path/to/your/monarch-mcp-server/src/monarch_mcp_server/server.py"
       ]
     }
   }
