Proposed Solution
just make it a list in the json and adapt your cli and AI will figure out which transport to use based on user request
Alternative Solutions
ability to add similar MCP without duplicating the system prompt in the context window (eg add 20 indentical MCP http with different URL and it does not duplicate the instructions)
