install @davidfuchs/mcp-uptime-kuma on VS Code

Requires Node 18+ on your system so npx can fetch the package on first run. VS Code (Copilot) uses a `servers` root key with an explicit `type` field — different from the `mcpServers` shape used by Claude Desktop and Cursor. Paste the config below, then follow the reload step to register @davidfuchs/mcp-uptime-kuma.

paste into
workspace: .vscode/mcp.json (project root — committed with the repo)
user: ~/.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "servers": {
    "uptime-kuma": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@davidfuchs/mcp-uptime-kuma"
      ],
      "env": {
        "UPTIME_KUMA_URL": "http://your-uptime-kuma-instance:3001",
        "UPTIME_KUMA_USERNAME": "your_username",
        "UPTIME_KUMA_PASSWORD": "your_password"
      }
    }
  }
}
then: VS Code picks up the change. Run 'MCP: List Servers' from the command palette to verify.
