`connect` merges agentmemory into that agent's MCP config and preserves any existing servers. Supported agent names:

`claude-code`, `copilot-cli`, `codex`, `cursor`, `gemini-cli`, `opencode`, `cline`, `continue`, `droid`, `hermes`, `openclaw`, `openhuman`, `pi`, `qwen`, `warp`, `zed`, `antigravity`, `kiro`.

If you cannot tell which agent you are, default to `claude-code`. After wiring, restart the agent or run its MCP reload command (for example `/mcp` in Claude Code) so it picks up the server.

IBM Bob MCP settings file name path mcp_settings.json mcp.json global configuration ~/.bob/settings

💡 Result:

IBM Bob manages Model Context Protocol (MCP) server configurations through two primary levels of JSON-based files. Global Configuration Global settings are stored in mcp_settings.json, which applies configurations across all workspaces [1][2][3]. The standard location for this file is in the user's home directory under the.bob/settings/ subdirectory [4][5]: ~/.bob/settings/mcp_settings.json Note: Depending on the specific environment or installation, some official documentation may refer to the global file simply as ~/.bob/mcp_settings.json [2][3]. Additionally, some IDE-integrated versions of IBM Bob store these settings within application-specific data directories, such as: macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/IBM Bob/User/globalStorage/ibm.bob-code/settings/mcp_settings.json [6] Linux: ~/.config/IBM Bob/User/globalStorage/ibm.bob-code/settings/mcp_settings.json [6] Windows: %APPDATA%\IBM Bob\User\globalStorage\ibm.bob-code\settings\mcp_settings.json [6] Project-Level Configuration Project-specific settings are stored in a file named mcp.json [1][2]. This file is located in the root directory of your project folder [1][3]:.bob/mcp.json If the same MCP server name exists in both global and project configurations, the project-level setting takes precedence [2][3]. You can manage these files directly or through the IBM Bob settings menu, which allows you to open and edit the global or project-specific MCP configurations [1][7]. Changes usually require a restart or reload of IBM Bob to take effect [4][8].

Use Bob’s global MCP settings filename here — ~/.bob/settings/ should use mcp_settings.json; mcp.json is the project-level name, so this adapter writes and verifies the wrong file and Bob won’t read it.

rest with a brief reason, keep changes minimal, and validate.

In `@src/cli/connect/bob.ts` at line 9, The Bob adapter is using the project-level
MCP filename instead of the global settings filename, so update the config path
in the bob connector to use Bob’s global MCP settings file name. In the
connect/bob.ts logic that builds the settings path with join(homedir(), ".bob",
"settings", ...), replace the current mcp.json reference with mcp_settings.json
so the adapter writes and verifies the file Bob actually reads.
