 Use this package to connect any MCP client that speaks **stdio** (Codex CLI, Claude Desktop's config file, Cursor, Windsurp, …) to your AI Commander relay. It wraps the remote HTTPS/SSE MCP endpoint so clients that can only launch a local process get the same `remote_exec` and `session_status` tools.
 
 > Using **Claude Code**? You don't need this package — add the relay directly:
-> `claude mcp add --transport http aicommander https://aicommander.dev/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer <token>"`
+> `claude mcp add --transport http aicommander https://aicommander.dev/mcp`
+>
+> No login or token is required to connect. Only add `--header "Authorization: Bearer <api-key>"` if you want the optional accounts/alias features — generate an **account API key** for free at [aicommander.dev](https://aicommander.dev). By default an API key only works while its owner has signed in to the dashboard within the last **24h** (a sign-in or the dashboard "Reactivate" button re-arms it; opt-out per account) — if it lapses, tool calls return a friendly "sign in to reactivate" message instead of acting.
 
 ## Tools
 
 | Tool | Description |
 |---|---|
-| `remote_exec` | Run a shell command on a machine by its `AIC-…` session code; streams stdout/stderr back. |
-| `session_status` | Check whether a machine is online and ready. |
+| `remote_exec` | Run a shell command on one of your machines — the tool for any "connect to / remote shell / run X on" request. Name the machine by its `AIC-…` session code or (with an API key) a saved alias/hostname like `wearfits-m3`; streams stdout/stderr back. |
+| `session_status` | Check whether a machine is online/active/reachable (e.g. "is wearfits-m3 up?"). Same machine naming as above. |
+
+These are the canonical way to reach your machines — your AI client should use them rather than probing the local network, DNS/`.local`, or SSH. A string containing `aic-`/`AIC-` is almost certainly one of your machines.
 
 ## Configuration
 
@@ -20,20 +24,35 @@ Two environment variables:
 
 | Variable | Required | Default | Description |
 |---|---|---|---|
-| `AICOMMANDER_ADMIN_TOKEN` | **yes** | — | Admin token from `POST /api/admin/token` on your relay. |
-| `AICOMMANDER_SERVER` | no | `https://aicommander.dev` | Base URL of your self-hosted AI Commander Worker. |
+| `AICOMMANDER_TOKEN` | no | — | **Account API key** (or OAuth access token) for the optional accounts/alias features — saved machines, aliases, account access. Generate one for free at [aicommander.dev](https://aicommander.dev). An API key stays active only while its account has signed in to the dashboard within the last 24h (default; opt-out per account); OAuth access tokens are not gated this way. |
+| `AICOMMANDER_SERVER` | no | `https://aicommander.dev` | Base URL of the AI Commander relay. Defaults to the hosted service; only set this to point at a different endpoint. |
 
 ## Usage
 
-### Codex CLI — `~/.codex/config.toml`
+### Codex CLI
+
+Recent Codex supports **streamable HTTP** directly — no Node/npx bridge needed:
+
+```bash
+codex mcp add aicommander --url https://aicommander.dev/mcp
+```
+
+> Pass `--url` **before** the URL. Without it Codex treats the URL as a command to
+> launch and fails with `MCP startup failed: No such file or directory (os error 2)`.
+
+Prefer the local stdio bridge? Edit `~/.codex/config.toml`:
 
 ```toml
 [mcp_servers.aicommander]
 command = "npx"
 args = ["-y", "@aicommander/mcp"]
-env = { AICOMMANDER_ADMIN_TOKEN = "<token>", AICOMMANDER_SERVER = "https://aicommander.dev" }
+env = { AICOMMANDER_SERVER = "https://aicommander.dev" }
 ```
 
+> **Windows:** use `command = "npx.cmd"` (or `command = "cmd"`, `args = ["/c", "npx",
+> "-y", "@aicommander/mcp"]`). Plain `npx` resolves to `npx.exe`, which doesn't exist,
+> so the spawn fails with the same `os error 2`.
