How to source .env?

[sti0]

I've got a .env file which is sourced by my bash. When running claude it can use the ENV. But when running agent-deck its in a new tmux session.

Potential workaround:

1. add ENV to settings.json -> manage ENV at two places
2. run ! source .env inside of the agent-deck claude session.

Is there a way to source .env for every agent-deck session automatically?

I am also having this problem. I currently store all my MCP credentials in .envrc files (loaded into shell automatically when you run 'direnv allow'). Then, I use a custom program I wrote to "bake" the mcp.json file, with the creds substituted in. What I end up with is a mcp.json (or TOML) that contains the 1-2 MCPs I specified, with the creds, and nothing more.

I think my best solution for now will be to have agent-deck run "rig notion context7" as a custom command, which will cause it to compile the Notion and Context7 MCPs and launch Claude with those MCPs enabled.

I wish there were a better way.
