 ## What It Is
 
-This repo contains two separate processes:
+Remote-only: GitHub is the canvas. No local server, no ports.
 
-- Canvas server: web UI + REST API + WebSocket updates (default `http://127.0.0.1:3000`)
-- MCP server: exposes MCP tools over stdio; syncs to the canvas via `EXPRESS_SERVER_URL`
+- Viewer: static Excalidraw app on GitHub Pages (public repos) or Cloudflare Pages (private repos), reads `canvas.excalidraw` from the `excalidrop` branch
+- MCP server: remote-only stdio (`npx -y excalidrop@latest mcp --repo owner/repo`); draws via GitHub Contents API, screenshots via shared relay when a viewer tab is open
 
 ## How We Differ from the Official Excalidraw MCP

 ## Quick Start
 
 ```bash
-npm i -D excalidrop
-npx excalidrop setup  # gh auth check → publishes viewer to gh-pages → app-install link → verifies live
+npx excalidrop              # interactive TUI: repo → auth → host → editor
+# or one-shot:
+npx excalidrop setup owner/repo [--target pages|cloudflare]
 ```
 
 `setup` walks you through the whole flow on **any repo you own or can access**:
 
-1. **Checks `gh auth`** (log in with `gh auth login` first — 2FA via GitHub).
-2. **Publishes an empty canvas** to your repo's `gh-pages` branch and enables Pages.
-3. **Prints the one-time app-install link** (`github.com/apps/<app>/installations/new`) — installing the GitHub App on the repo is what grants canvas access. Repo access == canvas access: collaborators with write can edit, readers get view-only, everyone else gets a login wall.
-4. **Verifies** the viewer + scene are actually serving.
-5. Prints your canvas URL. In your agent, run `switch_remote { target: "<that URL>" }` once — it's remembered per-project in `.excalidrop.json`, so subsequent sessions skip it and draw directly. Commits land on GitHub; the viewer updates itself. Human edits in the browser autosync every 10s with a force-save on close.
+1. **Checks `gh auth`** (log in with `gh auth login` first — 2FA via GitHub, or `npx excalidrop login` device flow).
+2. **Picks a host** (recommended from visibility: public→GitHub Pages, private→Cloudflare Pages; override with `--target`). Publishes the viewer once — later saves never redeploy.
+3. Repo access == canvas access: collaborators with write can edit, readers get view-only, everyone else gets a login wall.
+4. Writes `.mcp.json` + remembers the repo in `.excalidrop.json`, so the MCP preloads it and subsequent sessions draw directly. Commits land on GitHub; the viewer updates itself.
 
-Prefer local-only? `npx excalidrop init` (free port + agent install prompt) then `npx excalidrop up`.
-
-Each project gets its own port (scanned free from 3030), so several checkouts run concurrently. Agent config needs no hardcoded port — same pattern as `chrome-devtools-mcp`:
+No install needed — editors run the MCP straight from npm:
 
 ```bash
-claude mcp add excalidrop --scope project -- npx -y excalidrop mcp
-codex mcp add excalidrop -- npx -y excalidrop mcp
+claude mcp add excalidrop --scope project -- npx -y excalidrop@latest mcp --repo owner/repo
+codex mcp add excalidrop -- npx -y excalidrop@latest mcp --repo owner/repo
 ```
 
-## Quick Start (Local)
+Screenshots / viewport / mermaid need one viewer tab open (shared relay at `excalidrop.wtf403.workers.dev`); drawing works headless.
 
-Prereqs: Node >= 18, npm
+### Migrating public↔private
 
-```bash
-npm ci
-npm run build
-```
+Flipping repo visibility doesn't move canvas data (it stays on the `excalidrop` branch) — only the viewer host changes. GitHub Pages serves private repos only on paid plans, so private repos use Cloudflare Pages. The TUI detects the flip (stored target in `.excalidrop.json` vs current visibility) and pre-selects the right host.
 
-Terminal 1: start the canvas
-```bash
-PORT=3000 npm run canvas
-```
+**Public → private:**
 
-> **Security note:** The server defaults to binding on `127.0.0.1` only. If you need to expose it on a network interface (e.g. Docker, remote access), set `HOST=0.0.0.0` — but ensure you have network-level access controls in place, as the API has no built-in authentication.
+1. `gh repo edit owner/repo --visibility private` (or repo Settings).
+2. `npx excalidrop setup owner/repo --target cloudflare` (needs `wrangler login` once). New URL: `https://excalidrop-owner-repo.pages.dev/?repo=owner/repo`.
+3. Anonymous viewing ends: private scenes need a token, so every viewer must log in and the Excalidrop app must be installed on the repo.
+4. Add the new `https://<project>.pages.dev/` callback URL in your GitHub App / OAuth App settings (exact match).
+5. The old `owner.github.io/repo` URL 404s — optionally disable Pages (Settings → Pages) to avoid confusion.
 
-Open `http://127.0.0.1:3000`.
+**Private → public:**
 
-Terminal 2: run the MCP server (stdio)
-```bash
-EXPRESS_SERVER_URL=http://127.0.0.1:3000 node dist/index.js
-```
+1. `gh repo edit owner/repo --visibility public`.
+2. Either stay on Cloudflare (keeps working; anonymous reads start working once public) or move back to zero-config: `npx excalidrop setup owner/repo --target pages`.
+3. If you move back, optionally delete the Cloudflare project (`npx -y wrangler@4 pages project delete <project>`) so two live URLs don't drift.
 
 ## Configure MCP Clients
 
-The MCP server runs over stdio and can be configured with any MCP-compatible client. The recommended path is `npm i -D excalidrop && npx excalidrop init` (per-project canvas + generated `.mcp.json`), which replaces the manual setups below.

 ### Notes
 
-- **Canvas server**: Must be running before the MCP server connects. Start it with `npx excalidrop up`.
-- **Absolute paths**: When using local node setup, replace `/absolute/path/to/mcp_excalidraw` with the actual path where you cloned and built the repo.
-- **In-memory storage**: The canvas server stores elements in memory. Restarting the server will clear all elements. Use the export/import scripts if you need persistence.
+- **No install, no local server**: replace `owner/repo` with your canvas repo. Auth via `GITHUB_TOKEN`, `gh auth`, or `npx excalidrop login`.
+- **Scene storage**: `canvas.excalidraw` on the repo's `excalidrop` branch (+ `snapshots/*.json`). Nothing lives in memory to lose.
+- **Screenshots** (`get_canvas_screenshot`, `export_to_image`, `set_viewport`) need one viewer tab open (relay); everything else works headless.
