 # @mergesafe-io/connect
 
-One command to connect your AI client to the [MergeSafe](https://app.mergesafe.io) MCP server — no JSON editing.
+One command connects every AI client on your machine to the
+[MergeSafe](https://app.mergesafe.io) MCP server — globally, so it works in
+every project. No JSON editing.
 
 ```bash
-npx @mergesafe-io/connect claude-desktop --key msk_your_api_key
+npx @mergesafe-io/connect --key msk_your_api_key
 ```
 
-That's it. Restart the client and the `mergesafe` tools are available.
+That's it. The CLI detects which clients are installed (Claude Code, Claude
+Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, …), writes each one's **global** config,
+and backs up every file it touches. Restart your clients and the `mergesafe`
+tools are available everywhere.
+
+To uninstall from every detected client:
+
+```bash
+npx @mergesafe-io/connect --uninstall
+```
+
+That removes only the mergesafe entry — all other configs are preserved.
 
 ## What it does
 
-- Finds the right MCP config file for your client and OS
+- Detects the AI clients installed on your machine (or targets just one if
+  you name it: `npx @mergesafe-io/connect cursor --key msk_…`)
+- Finds the right **global** MCP config file for each client and OS
 - Backs up the existing file next to it (`*.bak-<timestamp>`)
 - Merges in the `mergesafe` server entry — every other setting and server is preserved
 - Refuses to touch a file it can't parse (broken JSON aborts with a clear message)

 ## Development
 
 ```bash
 npm test           # node --test, zero deps
-node bin/mergesafe-connect.js cursor --key msk_x --dry-run
+node bin/mergesafe-connect.js --key msk_x --dry-run          # auto-detect
+node bin/mergesafe-connect.js cursor --key msk_x --dry-run   # single client
 ```
 
 ## Publishing
 
-The `@mergesafe` npm scope must exist (create the org on npmjs.com), then:
-
 ```bash
 npm publish --access public
