Accept Ctrl+V paste on macOS and load MCP edit drafts from config.json - #247
Conversation
Cmd+V paste works end to end, but Linux-muscle-memory Ctrl+V did nothing on macOS because only the platform modifier was matched; the same gap existed in chat, MCP add, and MCP configure inputs. Editing an MCP that exists only in config.json (4 of Andrew's entries, including ai.exa/exa) failed the runtime-registry lookup and opened the configure screen with blank defaults, so Save could never be trusted. Fall back to the persisted config.json entry for the draft; keep the error path only when the id is unknown everywhere. Fixes #244 Fixes #246

Preserve persisted MCP invocation metadata.
draft_parts_from_persisted_config emits only the package identifier for stdio entries. It drops McpConfig::package_args and the values in McpConfig::config["package_args"]. Saving the draft then writes package_args: vec![] and config: serde_json::Value::Null, so editing an entry can remove its required invocation arguments. Carry both fields through the draft and save them. Also derive the command from package_type; a Docker entry without runtime_hint must use "docker", not "npx".

Reject modified Command+V in routes_platform_shortcut.
When modifiers.platform is set, the predicate returns true before checking modifiers.shift or modifiers.alt. Cmd+Shift+V and Cmd+Alt+V can therefore reach the "v" paste handler. Add V-specific Shift/Alt filtering on the platform path and test both combinations.

What
Two fixes verified against the live app on macOS:
1. Ctrl+V now pastes (#244)
Cmd+V paste was already working end to end (live log proof: keystroke → clipboard read → paste applied). The reported failure came from pressing Ctrl+V, which was never wired: all paste handlers matched only the platform modifier. Chat, MCP add, and MCP configure inputs now accept
(platform || control) + v, with alt/shift combinations still rejected. Non-macOS behavior is unchanged (control is the platform modifier there).2. MCP Edit loads drafts from config.json (#246)
Editing an entry that exists only in config.json (4 of the entries on the real machine, including ai.exa/exa) failed the runtime-registry lookup:
The configure screen then opened with blank defaults ("MCP name", "npx @scope/package", auth None), making Save unusable/untrustworthy.
on_configure_mcpnow falls back to the persisted config.json entry (name/package/transport/url/auth/env), sharing the exact emission tail with the registry path; the error path survives only when the id is unknown to both sources.Tests
