+ Not every piece of documentation below is visible to an MCP-connected coding agent.

17
+ - **Usually visible to the agent:** MCP tool names, tool descriptions, input field descriptions, and MCP resources that the client explicitly reads.
18
+ - **Not safe to assume visible:** this `README.md`, `docs/DESIGN.md`, `AGENTS.md`, and other repository files unless the client or orchestrator copies that content into the model context.
19
+ - **Authoring rule:** keep protocol-critical calling rules in tool descriptions and MCP resources first; mirror them in README for humans, but do not rely on README alone.
20
+
21
+ In practice, the most important runtime rules are duplicated in the `claude_code*` tool descriptions and the `quickstart` / `gotchas` / `compat-report` resources so async polling clients can succeed even when they never read this file.

+ ### Choosing the default Claude executable
536
+
537
+ - `CLAUDE_CODE_MCP_PATH` and `CLAUDE_CODE_MCP_COMMAND` are mutually exclusive.
538
+ - If neither is set, the server auto-detects `claude`, then `claude-internal`, then falls back to the SDK-bundled CLI.
539
+ - Request-level `pathToClaudeCodeExecutable` still overrides these server defaults.
540
+ - Invalid values for these env vars are treated as startup misconfiguration and will fail the server fast.
