+- A model credential. The scaffold's default model goes through the [Vercel AI Gateway](../getting-started), so you need `AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY` (or `VERCEL_OIDC_TOKEN` pulled via `vercel link`).

+- **Connections** to reach a warehouse over an OAuth MCP, with per-user tokens Eve resolves for you.

 ## See it route
 
-A Growth user asks "what's our 8-week retention?" The model sees the playbook fits, calls `load_skill`, and applies the Growth conventions to that turn: weekly cohorts, no trial accounts. Ask the same question as a Finance user and you'll never see the Growth playbook. You get Finance's.
+The team comes from authenticated claims, which the auth layer stamps on in [Step 9](./ship-it). Until then `ctx.session.auth.current` has no `team`, so the resolver returns `null` and no playbook loads. To verify routing now, stamp a team in local dev. Add a dev-only entry to `agent/channels/eve.ts` ahead of `localDev()`, and remove it before Step 9 wires real auth:
 
-The team comes from authenticated claims, not from the message, so one tenant can't borrow another's playbook by asking nicely. (Those `attributes` are set by the auth layer in [Step 9](./ship-it).)
+```ts title="agent/channels/eve.ts"
+import { eveChannel } from "eve/channels/eve";
+import { localDev, placeholderAuth, vercelOidc, type AuthFn } from "eve/channels/auth";
+
+// Dev-only: stamp a team so Step 7's playbook resolver has something to read.
+// Remove before Step 9.
+const devTeam: AuthFn<Request> = () =>
+  process.env.NODE_ENV === "production"
+    ? null
+    : {
+        attributes: { team: "growth" },
+        authenticator: "dev-team",
+        principalId: "dev",
+        principalType: "user",
+      };
+
+export default eveChannel({
+  auth: [devTeam, localDev(), vercelOidc(), placeholderAuth()],
+});
+```
+
+Restart with `npm run dev` and ask "what's our 8-week retention?" The model sees the Growth playbook fits, calls `load_skill`, and applies the Growth conventions to that turn (weekly cohorts, no trial accounts). Switch `team` to `"finance"`, restart, and the same question routes to Finance's playbook instead.
+
+Because the team comes from authenticated claims, not from the message, one tenant can't borrow another's playbook through the message content.
 
 The same `defineDynamic` resolver drives dynamic tools and instructions too. For the full mechanism, see [Dynamic capabilities](../guides/dynamic-capabilities).
