MCP playground — FAQ
What does the MCP playground do?
It parses any Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf or Continue config and shows what it actually exposes — server keys, runtimes, missing env values, duplicate names, schema errors. A pre-flight check before you restart your client.
Does it run my MCP servers?
Not yet. The current version inspects the config statically — it parses the JSON, matches each entry against the Loadout catalog, flags placeholders and conflicts. A live execution mode (sandboxed servers + Anthropic API roundtrip) is on the roadmap.
Is my config sent anywhere?
No. Parsing happens entirely in your browser. Nothing leaves the page — no telemetry, no upload, no backend.
How is this different from the builder?
The builder helps you assemble a config from scratch. The playground inspects an existing one — paste anything you copied from a tutorial, a friend, or an old Claude Desktop install, and see what it really does.
