Migrate MCP Configurations to SLOP

Migrate existing MCP server configurations from Claude Desktop, VS Code, or other MCP clients to SLOP management.

Supported Sources

1. Claude Desktop - ~/.config/claude/claude_desktop_config.json or ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
2. VS Code - .vscode/mcp.json or workspace settings
3. Manual JSON - Any MCP configuration file

Migration Process

1. Detect existing MCP configurations
2. Parse server definitions (command, args, env)
3. Validate server configurations
4. Convert to SLOP format
5. Backup original configurations
6. Update ~/slop-mcp/config/slop.yaml
