What I did
Note: Open for a discussion on whether we should even support this feature given it's coming from a single client at the moment.
Handling a request from LM Studio folks (we have them listed as a client) to support multiple mcp.json config paths. They mentioned that users who started using their app long time ago would have their mcp servers config file in
~/.cache/lm-studio/mcp.jsonrather than in~/.lmstudio/mcp.jsonwhich is the case for newer version users. This PR tries to handle both directories. Following their ordering of directory lookupSlack thread for more context
