When using Laravel Boost MCP in the IDE, I get an error:

There is no problem with this MCP in Codex CLI and I can use it successfully in the cli tool.

My config.toml:

# --- Playwright MCP
[mcp_servers.playwright]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "@playwright/mcp@latest"]

# --- Laravel Boost MCP
[mcp_servers.laravel-boost]
command = "php"
args = ["artisan", "boost:mcp"]
