### Proxy Support
579+
580+
The MCP Server will detect typical PROXY environment variables and use them for
581+
connecting to the Atlas API, your MongoDB Cluster, or any other external calls
582+
to third-party services like OID Providers. The behaviour is the same as what
583+
`mongosh` does, so the same settings will work in the MCP Server.
