dsh-windows-mcp

Configuration

The defaults live in cordis.patch.yml. Everything below is set through the env block of the windows-mcp-bridge row.

Variable	Default here	Effect
WINDOWS_MCP_SCREENSHOT_SCALE	0.75	Screenshot downscale, 0.1–1.0. The single biggest lever on image token cost.
WINDOWS_MCP_DISABLE_FLASH	1	Suppresses upstream's orange "control taken over" border on every capture.
WINDOWS_MCP_SCREENSHOT_BACKEND	auto	Capture backend; see upstream docs before overriding.
WINDOWS_MCP_MAX_TREE_ELEMENTS	500	Cap on the accessibility-tree size reported by Snapshot.
WINDOWS_MCP_WATCHDOG	off	Upstream watchdog. Off by default because the UIA event pump can take the whole process down (upstream #332).
ANONYMIZED_TELEMETRY	false	Upstream defaults to on (PostHog). This plugin turns it off.

Override the row from your profile

Do not edit the plugin's own file — patch the row by id from your profile's $DSH_HOME/profiles/ /cordis.patch.yml, which is composed after bundle rows and therefore wins.

A patch replaces the whole config object; it does not deep-merge it. The loader applies overrides as target[key] = value (applyEntryPatches in dsh-app-boot), so a key you leave out is a key you delete: serverName is required (and names every tool), transport is required, command is required for stdio, url for streamable-http. A patch whose id does not exist, or whose name does not match, is skipped with a warning instead of failing.
