   Add the Overleaf MCP server to Claude Code. Run this command:
   
   claude mcp add overleaf -e OVERLEAF_GIT_TOKEN=<OVERLEAF_GIT_TOKEN> -e OVERLEAF_PROJECT_ID=<OVERLEAF_PROJECT_ID> -- npx -y mcp-server-overleaf
   
   Ask me for OVERLEAF_GIT_TOKEN, OVERLEAF_PROJECT_ID and only put the values in that config, nowhere else.
   
   Then check that it loaded and tell me if I need to sign in or restart.
