Feature request: toggle MCP directly in /mcp show list (Space key) #1640

Summary

Please add a direct toggle interaction in /mcp show so users can enable/disable a listed MCP server without typing its name.

Current pain point

Today, users typically need commands like /mcp disable <SERVER-NAME> or /mcp enable <SERVER-NAME>, which is slow when toggling frequently.

Proposed behavior

  • In /mcp show, display MCP servers as a selectable list with enabled/disabled state.
  • Allow keyboard navigation (↑/↓).
  • Press Space to toggle the selected MCP (on/off) immediately.
  • Optional: Enter to confirm/save and Esc to cancel.

Why this matters

  • Faster MCP workflow with fewer keystrokes
  • Better UX for users with multiple servers
  • More discoverable and ergonomic than name-based commands
