Bug Description
Wanted to add an MCP server via command line and got proposed the following command from Claude Code itself:
claude mcp add slack stdio docker -- run -i --rm \
--entrypoint /usr/local/bin/mcp-server \
-e SLACK_MCP_XOXC_TOKEN \
-e SLACK_MCP_XOXD_TOKEN \
ghcr.io/korotovsky/slack-mcp-server:latest \
--transport stdio
This does not work (it adds a new mcp server to ~/.claude.json with command = stdio).
