Hi.

Is there a way to connect to MCP without the need of manually enabling the plugin on the front-end?

I want to use penpot within an agentic development workflow that lives completely on a server and that doesn’t have any manual input. Is there a way to enable the MCP through CLI command or similar?

Thanks in advance for your help.
