1// Carrel's MCP endpoint, inside the Carrel Worker (design decision 7, corrected 2026-09-27): Carrel
2// has several people with different roles, so it verifies each token itself and maps the identity to
3// its own people. The protocol is the official MCP SDK v2 through `agents`, stateless: no session is
4// kept between requests, and a fresh server answers each one.
5//
6// By the time a request gets here the door (door.ts) has checked the OAuth token and found the active
7// person it belongs to. This file only speaks the protocol. It holds no rule about who may do what:
8// every tool calls the same functions the buttons do, and those functions refuse. check:mcp-roles
9// fails the build if role logic appears in this folder.
