Enum McpServerConfig 

pub enum McpServerConfig {
    Stdio(StdioServerConfig),
    Remote(RemoteServerConfig),
    InMemory(InMemoryServerConfig),
}

A single MCP server. The type field selects the transport; stdio is the default and may be omitted.

A local stdio server launched as a subprocess:

{
  "type": "stdio",
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"],
  "env": { "GITHUB_TOKEN": "ghp_..." }
}

A remote streamable-HTTP server using a pre-registered public OAuth client:

{
  "type": "http",
  "url": "https://mcp.slack.com/mcp",
  "oauth": {
    "clientId": "1601185624273.8899143856786",
    "callbackPort": 3118
  }
}

When a remote HTTP server returns an OAuth challenge, Aether uses its first-party Client ID Metadata Document at https://aether-agent.io/oauth/client-metadata.json and listens on 127.0.0.1:3118, advertising the exact redirect URI http://localhost:3118/. If port 3118 is occupied, authentication fails until the port is available.

The oauth object is optional. Set clientMetadataUrl for a custom CIMD, or clientId for a pre-registered public client; a configured clientId takes priority. callbackPort defaults to 3118 and must exactly match the client’s registered redirect URI. If the authorization server does not advertise CIMD, Aether falls back to deprecated Dynamic Client Registration. An explicit Authorization header bypasses OAuth entirely.

A remote server using a bearer token:

{
  "type": "http",
  "url": "https://mcp.example.com",
  "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ..." }
}

Set "deferTools": true to omit every tool on this server from the model-visible tool definitions and make it available through progressive aether mcp discovery. For selective deferral, set deferTools to an object with include and exclude lists. Entries match either an exact MCP-local tool name or a prefix ending in *:

{
  "type": "in-memory",
  "deferTools": {
    "include": ["*"],
    "exclude": ["bash", "lsp_*"]
  }
}
