appwrite-api error after install

The log shows mcp-server-appwrite exiting with unrecognized arguments: --users, and its usage line lists only --transport, --host, --port and --console-url. The payload does not show where --users is passed, so start by searching this repository's plugin and MCP server configuration for that flag and for the appwrite-api entry. Remove the flag or align it with what the server accepts, then confirm the server starts without the error. Done when the appwrite-api connection reaches a connected state in the log.

👟 Reproduction steps

1. Install the appwrite plugin through the cursor marketplace
2. Go to the cursor desktop app on Mac OS
3. See the plugin log for appwrite-api
4. See error

👍 Expected behavior

Let me authenticate with my appwrite account
