I do not see the tools (I see only 2)

You have to restart the Claude for desktop app (you have to quit it, just closing is not enough). After the restart the new MCP JARVIS configuration will be activated.

How can I change the MCP configuration?

To change the configuration (to additionally add Brave API key, add new allowed folder for the filesystem or add new servers) go to Settings > Developer tab > Edit config

Then open the claude_desktop_config.json file in any text editor. This is where you can additionally add the Brave API key or add a new allowed folder to the filesystem MCP server.
