Install On Board in Continue
What you need first
- Continue, installed.
- uv, which
gives the
uvxcommand the server starts with. - Your own value for
YOUR_AGENT_PROJECT_DIR.
Steps
- Open
~/.continue/config.yaml. On Windows it is%USERPROFILE%\.continue\config.yaml. - Add this entry. If the file already has
mcpServers, add only the item from- nameon.
mcpServers:
- name: "on_board"
type: stdio
command: "uvx"
args:
- "onboard-memory-mcp==4.0.4"
env:
"AGENT_PROJECT_DIR": "YOUR_AGENT_PROJECT_DIR" - Replace
YOUR_AGENT_PROJECT_DIRwith your own value. - Save the file and restart Continue.
Check it worked
Ask Continue: List the tools of on_board.
If it does not start
- spawn uvx ENOENT
- uv is not on the PATH that Continue sees. Install it, or write the
full path of
uvxin the config. - The server starts, but its tools fail
- A
YOUR_…placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong. - Nothing changes after a restart
- The file is not valid YAML any more. Check that the entry is indented like the lines around it.
