                 [mcp_servers.polydev.env]
                 POLYDEV_USER_TOKEN = "pd_your_token_here"

                 [mcp_servers.polydev.timeouts]
                 tool_timeout = 180
                 session_timeout = 600
                 ```

                 ## Usage

                 Just mention "polydev" or "perspectives" in your prompt:

                 ```
                 "Use polydev to debug this infinite loop"
                 "Get perspectives on: Redis vs PostgreSQL for caching?"
                 "Use polydev to review this API for security issues"
                 ```

                 ## Response time

                 10-40 seconds (queries multiple AI APIs in parallel)
