 - **Node.js ≥ 24** — the MCP server and session-start hook are self-contained Node bundles invoked through `npx`.
-- **Network** — `npx -y --prefer-online …@latest` resolves and downloads the package on first run in each environment; a machine that cannot reach the npm registry cannot start the MCP server or hook (see [Runtime](#runtime)).

 Cursor launches the MCP server and session-start hook through `npx`, so the shipped manifests contain no repository-relative `dist` paths:
 
-- **MCP server** — `npx -y --prefer-online --package=@brainervirus/workit-cursor@latest workit-cursor-mcp ${workspaceFolder}`. It speaks the MCP stdio protocol; `stdout` is reserved for protocol messages and diagnostics go to `stderr`.
-- **Session-start hook** — `npx -y --prefer-online --package=@brainervirus/workit-cursor@latest workit-cursor-session-start`. It emits valid hook output and a diagnostic on runtime failure, and remains fail-open where Cursor's hook contract requires startup continuity.

 - **Installing from Marketplace** — a Marketplace admin adds the repository URL through Cursor's authenticated publisher flow; end users then install the plugin from the Cursor Marketplace UI, which reads `.cursor-plugin/plugin.json` and the tracked components directly from Git.
