Global Configuration

Precedence

The order of precedence for these options is:
CLI flag > environment variable > default value

Config File Path

All commands support an optional parameter to specify the location of the mcpd config file.

You can provide this path in multiple ways:

• CLI flag: --config-file <path>
• Environment variable: MCPD_CONFIG_FILE=<path>
• Default: .mcpd.toml in the current working directory

Log Path

Sets the log file path for mcpd.

Options:

Setting Log Path

Log entries will be discarded by default, unless a log path is configured. Output intended for the terminal is still emitted.
