Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Using the mcp-server with various agent-capable software like claude desktop or CLINE.ai, I had trouble getting the MCP server to work.
The issue was that those apps do not run the "backlog mcp start" command from the project root, but from oher locations.
Describe the solution you'd like
I have not been able to find any way to control this behavior.
It would be great if I can configure the location of the backlog repository via a command line option and/or via an environment variable, rather than backlog just assuming the current directory as the correct location.
Additional context
I have verified this issue by wrapping the "backlog mcp start" command in a simple .sh/.bat script that manages the directory change. Then it all works.
