Remove the MCP Configuration

Find and remove the byterover-mcp entry from the mcpServers section. If you added byterover mcp under a different name, remove that entry instead.
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "byterover-mcp": {
      "httpUrl": "https://mcp.byterover.dev/v2/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Remove Automated Instructions

If you have ByteRover instructions in your QWEN.md file, remove this block:
[byterover-mcp]

You are given two tools from Byterover MCP server, including
## 1. `byterover-store-knowledge`
You `MUST` always use this tool when:

+ Learning new patterns, APIs, or architectural decisions from the codebase
+ Encountering error solutions or debugging techniques
+ Finding reusable code patterns or utility functions
+ Completing any significant task or plan implementation

## 2. `byterover-retrieve-knowledge`
You `MUST` always use this tool when:

+ Starting any new task or implementation to gather relevant context
+ Before making architectural decisions to understand existing patterns
+ When debugging issues to check for previous solutions
+ Working with unfamiliar parts of the codebase

Verify Removal

Check your MCP configuration to confirm byterover-mcp is no longer listed:
qwen mcp list
You should not see byterover-mcp in the list.
