Find servers for Bob Shell Official site

Bob Shell is IBM's command-line form of its Bob coding assistant, for interactive sessions and scripted automation. MCP servers go under mcpServers in ~/.bob/settings/mcp.json for all workspaces or .bob/mcp.json for one project, where the project entry wins. Local servers run over stdio and remote servers over Streamable HTTP with optional custom headers; the legacy SSE transport is no longer supported.
