Remove onboarding permanently

[Banbury]

Desktop Commander has a bad habit of creating 'onboarding' messages, that I don't need and don't want. It's wasting tokens. How can I turn this off permanently? Is there a parameter for this?

Can you DM me. I want to see why its happening this way for you.
It should not do it, not doing it for me for example.

What client you use with DC? Are you on Discord?

I have no idea, if I can DM anyone on Github. I am on Discord. Do you have a server?

I am using LM Studio with this config:

"desktop-commander-in-docker": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "-i",
        "--rm",
        "-v",
        "d:\\work\\agent-workspace\\Projects:/mnt/Projects",
        "-v",
        "d:\\work\\agent-workspace\\Downloads:/mnt/Downloads",
        "mcp/desktop-commander:latest"
      ]
    }

I am constantly getting this added to all output:

It's annoying.

I see. I think what is happening is that your docker setup is not persistent, it always looses that you are not a new user.

You have got mail.

I think, it would be a good idea to allow turning off the onboarding and the telemetry in the mcp settings. On second thought make them opt-in.
