opencode mcp add
```

This command will guide you through adding either a local or remote MCP server.
Run without arguments to interactively add either a local or remote MCP server.

You can also add a server non-interactively by passing a name. This writes the
server to your global config. Use `--url` for a remote server, or pass the
command to run after `--` for a local server.

```bash
# Remote server
opencode mcp add github --url https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp --header "Authorization=Bearer {env:GITHUB_TOKEN}"

# Local server
opencode mcp add filesystem -- npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem /path
```

| Flag | Description |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `--url` | URL for a remote MCP server. |
| `--header` | HTTP header for a remote server as `KEY=VALUE`. Repeatable. |
| `--env` | Environment variable for a local server as `KEY=VALUE`. Repeatable. |
Comment on lines +255 to +259

Header and environment values support [variable substitution](/docs/config#variables), so secrets like `{env:GITHUB_TOKEN}` are resolved from your environment at runtime.
