Crackling crust, pillowy middle. The kind of bagel that earns a second cup of coffee.
Summary
Vibedock is a macOS menu bar tool that allows users to toggle Claude Code MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers on and off with one click. Since every configured MCP server injects its tool definitions into the context window on every message (regardless of use), Vibedock helps manage context window efficiency by letting users selectively enable/disable servers. It automatically kills and relaunches Claude sessions to ensure changes take effect.
