Setup & Installation
What This Skill Does
Walks through configuring the MongoDB MCP server authentication. Covers three setup paths: direct connection string, Atlas Service Account credentials, or Atlas Local with Docker. Handles shell profile edits, read-only mode, and IP access list setup without touching credentials directly. Keeps credentials in a locked-down ~/.mcp-env file sourced from the shell profile instead of pasting secrets into chat or committing them to dotfiles.
