+- Run `npm run typecheck` after configuration changes. With the server running,
+  run `CONNECTA_TOKEN=... npm run doctor` before calling setup complete.

+Do not add alternate entrypoints, policy layers, generated connector catalogs,
+or runtime connector registration. Keep the deployment small enough to review

+# Connecta deployment
+
+This is the prescribed small Node deployment. Install and run it:
+
+```sh
+npm install
+CONNECTA_TOKEN=dev-token npm start
+```
+
+Then point an MCP client at `http://localhost:8787/mcp` with
+`Authorization: Bearer dev-token`.
+
+## Deployment contract
+
+- Edit `src/index.ts` for connectors, auth, storage, and the public URL.
+- Keep `executor: quickJsExecutor()` for the seven-tool code-first surface.
+- Keep secrets in environment variables or an external secret store.
+- Add application code only inside deliberate `api()` connector handlers.
+- Do not copy Connecta package internals into this deployment.
+- `AGENTS.md` is the canonical convention file; `CLAUDE.md` points to it.
+
+Verify a change with:
+
+```sh
+npm run typecheck
+# In another terminal, while npm start is running:
+CONNECTA_TOKEN=dev-token npm run doctor
+```
+
+Doctor checks health, the executor, and the exact prescribed seven-tool
+model-facing surface by running a harmless sandbox program. It reads the bearer
+from `CONNECTA_TOKEN`; it never accepts the secret as a command-line argument.
+Remote URLs must use HTTPS.
