Add .mcp.json to .gitignore for local testing

[echarrod]

Summary

Adds .mcp.json to .gitignore to allow developers to configure local MCP server settings for testing with Claude Code without committing credentials or local paths to source control.

Changes

• Added .mcp.json to .gitignore
• Includes example configuration in commit message for reference

Use Case

Developers working on this MCP server can create a local .mcp.json file to:

• Test the server with Claude Code during development
• Use connection strings or environment-specific credentials
• Configure local paths and settings
• Iterate quickly without needing to configure global Claude Code settings

Example Configuration

{
  "inputs": [
    {
      "id": "mysql_connection_string",
      "type": "promptString",
      "description": "MySQL Connection String",
      "password": true
    }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "mysql_local": {
      "command": "/path/to/node",
      "args": ["/path/to/mcp-server-mysql/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "MYSQL_CONNECTION_STRING": "${input:mysql_connection_string}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Important Notes

This is Claude Code specific - This configuration format is specific to Claude Code's MCP integration. Other MCP clients may use different configuration formats. Feel free to reject this PR if you prefer not to include Claude Code-specific configurations in the repository.

The main benefit is allowing local testing without accidentally committing sensitive credentials.

Code Quality

• ✅ CodeRabbit review passed with no issues
• ✅ Only modifies .gitignore (no code changes)
• ✅ Optional for developers - doesn't affect existing workflows
