What features would you like to see added?
MCP servers are listed in the order the /api/mcp/servers and /api/mcp/tools responses return them. That order is neither alphabetical nor stable from the user's point of view, and with more than a handful of servers it's hard to find one. I'd like every MCP server list sorted by the name it displays, case-insensitive, with numbers compared by value (server-2 before server-10).
More details
Two places build these lists, and sorting in both covers every one of them:
client/src/hooks/MCP/useMCPServerManager.ts: availableMCPServers feeds the MCP Settings panel (MCPBuilderPanel → MCPServerList), the chat MCP dropdown (MCPSelect) and the MCP submenu in the tools dropdown (MCPSubMenu). Sort by config.title || serverName, which is the label MCPServerCard and MCPServerMenuItem show.client/src/components/SidePanel/Agents/Tools/items/catalog.ts: buildCatalog iterates mcpServersMap in insertion order. That map is the tools response followed by configured servers without tools (AgentPanelContext.tsx), so even a sorted server response comes out unsorted here. Sorting the MCP items by name fixes both the agent's attached-tools list and the Tools marketplace dialog. deriveSelectedItems only sorts by kind, and its sort is stable, so the order carries through.
Sorting server-side isn't enough because of the tools-less servers appended in AgentPanelContext.
