feat: PostgreSQL migration, OAuth write MCP, Streamable HTTP, env-driven config, admin UI, landing page

- Migrate database from SQLite to PostgreSQL 16 (dual-backend with SQLite fallback) - Add Streamable HTTP MCP transport (replaces SSE): /readonly/mcp, /write/mcp, /mcp - Add OAuth ctxd.write scope and public write MCP surface - Add ctxd.write token validation (write-scoped tokens only on /write/mcp) - Add env-driven configuration (.env file with env var precedence over ctxd.yaml) - Add PostgreSQL to docker-compose.yml with healthcheck - Add psycopg dependency, migration script (SQLite → PostgreSQL) - Add admin UI: projects tab with typed-confirm delete, user management (list/manage subtabs) - Add OAuth client management: create, list, revoke (UI, CLI, API) - Add user active/inactive lifecycle (PATCH/DELETE APIs) - Add public landing page with themed login form (cookie-based session) - Add get_client_guide MCP tool (locked LLM-CLIENT.MD in ctxd-docs project) - Add DELETE /projects/<id> endpoint with cascading deletes - Add project_delete to db.py with FK ON DELETE SET NULL for audit_log - Add cookie-based session auth (ctxd_session cookie on login) - Add landing.html (public host) vs ui.html (internal dashboard) - Add schema_sqlite.sql for SQLite fallback - Add auth_password.py (PBKDF2-SHA256 password hashing) - Add .env.example template with all documented env vars - Add README.md with full setup, config, API, CLI, and troubleshooting docs - Add SKILL.md (canonical LLM client guide, lives in project root) - Update Traefik template: route everything except /mcp - Update OAuth discovery: advertise ctxd.write scope, /readonly/mcp resource - Update Hermes MCP config: /mcp endpoint with Bearer header - Remove DB-level audit_log triggers (conflict with FK ON DELETE SET NULL) - Remove SSE transport code (replaced by Streamable HTTP) - Untrack __pycache__ and data/ctxd.db from git

+# CTXD — Context Dossier
+
+A single source of truth for multi-harness project context. One canonical `AGENTS.md` per project, served to Claude, Hermes, Codex, Cursor, and any OAuth-capable MCP client via Streamable HTTP.
+
+## Overview
+
+CTXD solves context sprawl: when you work across multiple LLM harnesses (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Copilot, Hermes), each has its own context file convention (`CLAUDE.md`, `.cursorrules`, `CODEX.md`, etc.). Without a canonical source, these drift independently.
+
+CTXD provides:
+- **Multi-file context per project** — `CONTEXT.MD`, `DECISIONS.MD`, `RUNBOOKS.MD`, `PROMPTS.MD`, `GLOSSARY.MD`
+- **Compiled view** — all files concatenated with metadata header, served as a single document to agents
+- **Sync to repos** — writes `CONTEXT.MD` as `AGENTS.md` + symlinks (`CLAUDE.md`, `.cursorrules`, `CODEX.md` → `AGENTS.md`)
+- **Version-checked writes** — optimistic concurrency with `base_version` to prevent silent overwrites
+- **OAuth 2.0 authorization server** — DCR, Authorization Code + PKCE, `ctxd.read` and `ctxd.write` scopes
+- **Streamable HTTP MCP** — single-endpoint transport for read-only and write surfaces
+- **Web UI** — per-user password login, admin panel, project/file management
+- **PostgreSQL backend** — with SQLite fallback for local dev
+- **Append-only audit log** — every read, write, create, delete, sync, and search is logged
+- **Point-in-time snapshots** — automatic version snapshots with rotation (min 5, max 25 per project)
+- **Full-text search** — PostgreSQL `tsvector` with GIN index (FTS5 on SQLite fallback)
+

+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Docker and Docker Compose
+- A reverse proxy with TLS (Traefik, Caddy, nginx) for public exposure
+- (Optional) An existing PostgreSQL 14+ instance if not using the bundled one
+
+### 1. Clone and configure
+
+```bash
+cd /mnt/ai-storage/projects/ctxd/app
+cp .env.example .env
+```
+
+Edit `.env` with your values:
+
+```bash
+# Database
+DATABASE_URL=postgresql://ctxd:your-password@postgres:5432/ctxd
+POSTGRES_USER=ctxd
+POSTGRES_PASSWORD=your-strong-password
+
+# Server
+CTXD_HOST=0.0.0.0
+CTXD_PORT=9091
+CTXD_HOME=/data
+
+# Auth
+CTXD_AUTH_ENABLED=true
+CTXD_API_KEY=your-api-key-here          # Generate: python3 -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))"
+
+# OAuth
+OAUTH_ENABLED=true
+OAUTH_ISSUER=https://ctxd.yourdomain.com
+OAUTH_APPROVAL_KEY=your-approval-key     # Generate: python3 -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))"
+```
+
+### 2. Build and start
+
+```bash
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+This starts:
+- `ctxd-postgres` — PostgreSQL 16 (Alpine)
+- `dossier` — CTXD daemon (web UI + MCP + OAuth + REST API)
+
+### 3. Verify
+
+```bash
+# Health check
+curl http://localhost:9091/status
+# → {"status": "ok", "db": "/data/ctxd.db"}
+
+# List projects (requires API key)
+curl http://localhost:9091/projects -H "Authorization: Bearer your-api-key"
+```
+
+### 4. Set admin password
+
+```bash
+docker exec dossier dossier user-set-password admin -p "your-admin-password"
+```
+
+> **Shell quoting:** Use double quotes (`"`) if the password contains single quotes (`'`). Use single quotes (`'`) if it contains `$`, backticks, or `!`. The failure mode is shell expansion, not PBKDF2.
+
+### 5. Access the Web UI
+
+- **LAN:** `http://<server-ip>:9091/`
+- **Public (via Traefik):** `https://ctxd.yourdomain.com/`
+
+Sign in with `admin` / your password.
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+All config is driven by environment variables. A `ctxd.yaml` file in `/data` can override built-in defaults, but env vars always take precedence.
+
+**Precedence:** env var > `ctxd.yaml` > built-in default
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| **Database** | | |
+| `DATABASE_URL` | *(empty)* | PostgreSQL connection string. If empty, falls back to SQLite at `$CTXD_HOME/ctxd.db` |
+| `POSTGRES_USER` | `ctxd` | PostgreSQL user (for bundled PG container) |
+| `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` | `ctxd_local_dev` | PostgreSQL password (for bundled PG container) |
+| `POSTGRES_DB` | `ctxd` | PostgreSQL database name (for bundled PG container) |
+| **Server** | | |
+| `CTXD_HOST` | `0.0.0.0` | Bind address |
+| `CTXD_PORT` | `9091` | Listen port |
+| `CTXD_HOME` | `~/.ctx` | Data directory (inside container: `/data`) |
+| `LOG_LEVEL` | `info` | Uvicorn log level (`debug`, `info`, `warning`, `error`) |
+| **Auth** | | |
+| `CTXD_AUTH_ENABLED` | `false` | Enable authentication globally |
+| `CTXD_API_KEY` | *(empty)* | Shared API key for Hermes/internal MCP + HTTP auth |
+| `CTXD_EXTERNAL_READONLY_KEY` | *(empty)* | Legacy `?key=` on read-only MCP (migration only) |
+| **OAuth** | | |
+| `OAUTH_ENABLED` | `false` | Enable OAuth authorization server |
+| `OAUTH_ISSUER` | *(empty)* | Public URL (used in OAuth discovery metadata) |
+| `OAUTH_APPROVAL_KEY` | *(empty)* | Fallback approval key for `/oauth/authorize` |
+| `OAUTH_APPROVAL_USER_ID` | `admin` | Which user ID to attribute OAuth approvals to |
+| `OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN_TTL` | `3600` | Access token lifetime in seconds |
+| `OAUTH_REFRESH_TOKEN_TTL` | `2592000` | Refresh token lifetime in seconds (30 days) |
+| **Web Sessions** | | |
+| `WEB_SESSION_TTL` | `604800` | Session cookie lifetime in seconds (7 days) |
+| **Snapshots** | | |
+| `SNAPSHOT_MIN_KEEP` | `5` | Minimum snapshots retained per project |
+| `SNAPSHOT_MAX_KEEP` | `25` | Maximum snapshots before rotation |
+
+### Using an External PostgreSQL
+
+To use an external PostgreSQL instead of the bundled container:
+
+1. Create a database and user on your external PG instance
+2. Set `DATABASE_URL` in `.env` to point to it
+3. Start only the dossier service: `docker compose up -d dossier`
+
+The bundled `ctxd-postgres` container will start but is unused. To prevent it from starting, run it with zero scale:
+
+```bash
+docker compose up -d --scale postgres=0
+```
+
+### Fallback to SQLite
+
+If `DATABASE_URL` is empty or not set, CTXD falls back to SQLite at `$CTXD_HOME/ctxd.db`. This is useful for local development or single-user deployments that don't need PostgreSQL features.
+
+## MCP Surfaces
+
+CTXD exposes three MCP endpoints via Streamable HTTP:
+
+| Endpoint | Auth | Scope | Tools |
+|----------|------|-------|-------|
+| `/readonly/mcp` | OAuth bearer or API key | `ctxd.read` | `list_projects`, `get_project_context`, `search_context`, `get_project_tags`, `list_files`, `get_file`, `get_client_guide` |
+| `/write/mcp` | OAuth bearer | `ctxd.write` | `update_file`, `set_project_tags`, `sync_to_project`, `get_client_guide` |
+| `/mcp` | Shared API key | *(full)* | All read + write tools + `sync_to_project`, `auto_generate_tags`, `get_user_profile` |
+
+### Connecting an LLM Client
+
+**Claude Desktop / Claude Web:**
+```
+Connector URL: https://ctxd.yourdomain.com/readonly/mcp
+```
+Claude auto-discovers OAuth metadata and registers via DCR. Request `scope=ctxd.read ctxd.write` for write access.
+
+**Hermes Agent:**
+```yaml
+# ~/.hermes/config.yaml
+mcp_servers:
+  dossier:
+    url: http://<server-ip>:9091/mcp
+    timeout: 30
+    headers:
+      Authorization: "Bearer your-api-key"
+```
+
+**Other MCP clients (Codex, Cursor, etc.):**
+- Register an OAuth client via `POST /oauth/register` with your redirect URI
+- Connect to `/readonly/mcp` (read) or `/write/mcp` (read + write)
+- Use the access token as `Authorization: Bearer <token>`
+
+### MCP Tool Reference
+
+#### Read-only tools (`/readonly/mcp` and `/write/mcp`)
+
+| Tool | Args | Returns |
+|------|------|---------|
+| `get_client_guide` | *(none)* | Locked `LLM-CLIENT.MD` guide — **call this first** |
+| `list_projects` | *(none)* | All projects with version numbers |
+| `get_project_context` | `project_id` | Compiled markdown of all context files |
+| `search_context` | `query`, `limit?` | FTS results across all projects |
+| `get_project_tags` | `project_id` | Metadata tags for a project |
+| `list_files` | `project_id` | All context files in a project |
+| `get_file` | `project_id`, `file_path` | Single file with metadata header |
+
+#### Write tools (`/write/mcp` only)
+
+| Tool | Args | Returns |
+|------|------|---------|
+| `update_file` | `project_id`, `file_path`, `content`, `base_version` | `{"ok": true, "new_version": N}` or conflict error |
+| `set_project_tags` | `project_id`, `tags[]` | `{"ok": true, "tags": [...]}` |
+| `sync_to_project` | `project_id` | Writes `CONTEXT.MD` as `AGENTS.md` + symlinks to project root |
+
+### Locked Files
+
+| File | Scope | Protection |
+|------|-------|------------|
+| `CONTEXT.MD` | All projects | Cannot delete — minimum required file |
+| `CONTEXT.MD` | `ctxd-docs` project only | Cannot update or delete |
+| `LLM-CLIENT.MD` | `ctxd-docs` project only | Cannot update or delete |
+
+## OAuth
+
+### Scopes
+
+| Scope | Grants |
+|-------|--------|
+| `ctxd.read` | Read-only MCP tools |
+| `ctxd.write` | Write MCP tools (includes read) |
+
+Request both: `scope=ctxd.read ctxd.write`
+
+### Redirect URIs
+
+| Platform | Redirect URI |
+|----------|-------------|
+| Claude Desktop | `https://claude.ai/api/mcp/auth_callback` |
+| Claude Code | `http://localhost:5555/oauth/callback` |
+| Codex CLI | `http://localhost:7777/oauth/callback` |
+| Custom | Your app's documented OAuth callback |
+
+### Managing OAuth Clients
+
+**Via Admin UI:** `http://<server-ip>:9091/` → sign in as admin → **admin** → **oauth clients** tab
+
+**Via CLI:**
+```bash
+# Create
+docker exec dossier dossier oauth-client-create -n "Claude Desktop" --redirect-uri https://claude.ai/api/mcp/auth_callback
+
+# List
+docker exec dossier dossier oauth-client-list
+
+# Revoke (invalidates all tokens for that client)
+docker exec dossier dossier oauth-client-revoke ctxd_xxxxxxxx
+```
+
+**Via API (admin session or API key):**
+```bash
+# Create
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9091/oauth/clients \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-api-key" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"client_name": "Claude Desktop", "redirect_uris": ["https://claude.ai/api/mcp/auth_callback"]}'
+
+# List
+curl http://localhost:9091/oauth/clients -H "Authorization: Bearer your-api-key"
+
+# Revoke
+curl -X DELETE http://localhost:9091/oauth/clients/ctxd_xxxxxxxx -H "Authorization: Bearer your-api-key"
+```
+
+## Public Exposure (Traefik)
+
+### Router Rule
+
+Route everything except the internal MCP endpoint:
+
+```yaml
+rule: >
+  Host(`ctxd.yourdomain.com`) &&
+  !Path(`/mcp`)
+```
+
+This exposes:
+- Landing page (`GET /`)
+- Login (`POST /auth/login`, `GET /auth/me`)
+- Full Web UI dashboard (all REST API endpoints)
+- OAuth (`/oauth/*`, `/.well-known/*`)
+- Read-only MCP (`/readonly/mcp`)
+- Write MCP (`/write/mcp`)
+
+Only blocked: `/mcp` (internal full MCP — shared API key only)
+
+### Landing Page Behavior
+
+- **Not signed in** → themed landing page with login form
+- **Signed in** (valid session cookie) → full dashboard
+- Cookie: `ctxd_session` (SameSite=Lax, 7-day expiry)
+- After login: cookie set + redirect to dashboard
+
+A full Traefik template is at `app/templates/traefik-ctxd-readonly-mcp.yaml` in the `project-context-management` Hermes skill.
+
+## Web UI
+
+### Admin Panel
+
+Sign in as admin → click **admin** in the masthead.
+
+**Tabs:**
+1. **oauth clients** — client list (revoke per row) + create client form
+2. **users** — user list (id, name, role, active/inactive) + manage users (create, edit, activate, inactivate, delete)
+3. **projects** — manage projects (list with remove button, typed-name confirmation for delete)
+
+### Project Files
+
+Each project has multiple context files:
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `CONTEXT.MD` | Canonical project overview (synced as `AGENTS.md` to repos) |
+| `DECISIONS.MD` | Architecture decisions, rationale |
+| `RUNBOOKS.MD` | Deploy, troubleshoot, operate procedures |
+| `PROMPTS.MD` | Project-specific prompts for different harnesses |
+| `GLOSSARY.MD` | Project-specific terms, acronyms |
+
+The compiled view (`get_project_context`) concatenates all files with `## FILENAME` headers and a single metadata block at the top.
+
+## CLI
+
+All commands run inside the container:
+
+```bash
+docker exec dossier dossier <command>
+```
+
+### Commands
+
+```bash
+# Initialize (auto-runs on first container start)
+dossier init
+
+# Projects
+dossier project-create <project_id> [--display-name "Name"] [--description "Desc"]
+dossier project-list
+dossier read <project_id>                          # Print context to stdout

+## Backups
+
+### PostgreSQL
+
+```bash
+# Backup
+docker exec ctxd-postgres pg_dump -U ctxd ctxd > backup_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql
+
+# Restore
+cat backup_YYYYMMDD.sql | docker exec -i ctxd-postgres psql -U ctxd ctxd
+```
+
+### Snapshots
+
+CTXD automatically takes point-in-time snapshots before each context update. Snapshots are stored as files in `/data/snapshots/<project_id>/` and rotated (min 5, max 25 per project).
+
+## Migrating from SQLite to PostgreSQL
+
+If you started with SQLite and want to move to PostgreSQL:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Start PostgreSQL
+docker compose up -d postgres
+
+# 2. Run the migration script (reads from /data/ctxd.db, writes to DATABASE_URL)
+docker exec dossier python3 -m ctxd.migrate_sqlite_to_pg
+
+# 3. Set DATABASE_URL in .env and restart
+docker compose up -d dossier
+```
+
+The migration handles all tables, rebuilds the FTS index, and skips orphaned rows with FK violations.

+## Development
+
+### Local Development (SQLite, no Docker)
+
+```bash
+cd app
+pip install -e ".[mcp]"
+export CTXD_HOME=./dev-data
+python -m ctxd init
+python -m ctxd
+# → http://localhost:9091
+```
+
+### Rebuilding After Code Changes
+
+```bash
+cd app
+docker compose build
+docker compose up -d --no-build
+# Verify:
+curl http://localhost:9091/status
+docker logs dossier --tail 20
+```
+
+### Key Conventions
+
+- **Metadata headers** are dynamically generated on read, never stored in the DB
+- **File paths** are normalized to uppercase with `.MD` extension
+- **`CONTEXT.MD`** is the minimum required file — cannot be deleted from any project
+- **Version checking** uses `base_version` parameter — mismatches return `409 conflict`
+- **Audit log** is append-only at the application layer (every operation is logged)
+- **OAuth state** (`oauth_state.json`) and **web sessions** (`web_sessions.json`) are file-based, not in PostgreSQL
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Login fails with "invalid credentials"
+
+```bash
+# Reset admin password
+docker exec dossier dossier user-set-password admin -p "new-password"
+```
+
+If the password contains special characters, use the quoting that matches:
+- `'` in password → use double quotes (`"`)
+- `$`, `` ` ``, `!` in password → use single quotes (`'`)
+
+### Login works on LAN but not on public host
+
+The public host (`https://ctxd.yourdomain.com`) requires Traefik to route `/auth/login` and `/auth/me`. Check your Traefik router rule includes all paths (use `!Path(`/mcp`)` to block only the internal MCP).
+
+### MCP connection fails
+
+1. Check OAuth discovery: `curl https://ctxd.yourdomain.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`
+2. Check MCP endpoint: `curl -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' https://ctxd.yourdomain.com/readonly/mcp` → should be `401` (not `404`)
+3. If `404`: Traefik isn't routing `/readonly/mcp` — update the router rule
+4. If `401`: auth is working — check OAuth token scope and expiry
+
+### PostgreSQL connection fails
+
+```bash
+# Check PG is running
+docker compose ps postgres
+
+# Check connection
+docker exec dossier python3 -c "
+import os
+import psycopg
+conn = psycopg.connect(os.environ['DATABASE_URL'])
+print('Connected:', conn.info.server_version)
+"
+
+# If password mismatch (PG data volume initialized with different password):
+docker exec ctxd-postgres psql -U ctxd -c "ALTER USER ctxd PASSWORD 'new-password'"
+# Then update .env with the new password
+```
+
+### Container keeps restarting
+
+```bash
+docker logs dossier --tail 30
+```
+
+Common causes:
+- `DATABASE_URL` password doesn't match what PG was initialized with
+- `OAUTH_ENABLED=true` but `OAUTH_ISSUER` is empty
+- Missing `CTXD_API_KEY` when `CTXD_AUTH_ENABLED=true`

+# CTXD Client — LLM Agent Guide
+
+Use when an LLM agent (Claude Desktop, Codex CLI, Hermes, custom harness) needs to read or update project context stored in a Context Dossier (CTXD) daemon.
+
+## Overview
+
+CTXD is a single source of truth for multi-harness project context. It exposes:
+
+- **Read-only MCP** (`/readonly/mcp`) — OAuth bearer, `ctxd.read` scope, Streamable HTTP
+- **Write MCP** (`/write/mcp`) — OAuth bearer, `ctxd.write` scope, Streamable HTTP
+- **Web UI** (LAN `:9091` or public host) — per-user password login, admin panel
+- **Internal full MCP** (`/mcp`) — shared API key (Hermes/automation only), Streamable HTTP
+
+Public host: `https://ctxd.cubecraftcreations.com` (OAuth + MCP + landing page + dashboard).
+
+## Connection URLs
+
+| Surface | URL | Auth |
+|---------|-----|------|
+| Read-only MCP | `https://ctxd.cubecraftcreations.com/readonly/mcp` | OAuth `ctxd.read` |
+| Write MCP | `https://ctxd.cubecraftcreations.com/write/mcp` | OAuth `ctxd.write` |
+| OAuth discovery | `https://ctxd.cubecraftcreations.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server` | Public |
+| DCR registration | `POST https://ctxd.cubecraftcreations.com/oauth/register` | Public |
+| Landing page | `https://ctxd.cubecraftcreations.com/` | Public |
+
+## OAuth Flow
+
+1. **Discover** the authorization server metadata at `/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`
+2. **Register** a client via `POST /oauth/register` (DCR) with your redirect URI
+3. **Authorize** — open `/oauth/authorize` in a browser; an admin must approve
+4. **Exchange** the authorization code for tokens at `POST /oauth/token`
+5. **Use** the access token as `Authorization: Bearer *** on MCP Streamable HTTP connections
+
+### Scopes
+
+| Scope | Grants |
+|-------|--------|
+| `ctxd.read` | `list_projects`, `get_project_context`, `search_context`, `get_project_tags`, `list_files`, `get_file`, `get_client_guide` |
+| `ctxd.write` | `update_file`, `set_project_tags`, `sync_to_project`, `get_client_guide` |
+
+Request both scopes for full read+write: `scope=ctxd.read ctxd.write`
+
+### Redirect URIs by Platform
+
+| Platform | Redirect URI |
+|----------|-------------|
+| Claude Desktop | `https://claude.ai/api/mcp/auth_callback` |
+| Claude Code | `http://localhost:5555/oauth/callback` |
+| Codex CLI | `http://localhost:7777/oauth/callback` |
+| Custom | Your app's documented OAuth callback |
+
+### Token Lifetime
+
+Access tokens expire per server config (default ~1 hour). Refresh tokens are issued alongside access tokens. Use `POST /oauth/token` with `grant_type=refresh_token` to rotate.
+
+## MCP Tools
+
+### First Call — Always
+
+| Tool | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `get_client_guide` | Return the locked LLM-CLIENT.MD guide. **Call this first in every session.** No arguments. Covers OAuth, MCP tools, read/write endpoints, version-checked updates, and error handling. |
+
+The guide lives in the `ctxd-docs` project as `LLM-CLIENT.MD`. It is **locked** — cannot be updated or deleted by any MCP/API client. If you need the guide updated, ask an admin to edit it via the Web UI.
+
+### Read-only (`/readonly/mcp`)
+
+| Tool | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `list_projects` | All projects with version numbers |
+| `get_project_context` | Compiled markdown of all context files for a project |
+| `search_context` | FTS5 full-text search across all projects |
+| `get_project_tags` | Metadata tags for a project |
+| `list_files` | All context files in a project (multi-file mode) |
+| `get_file` | Single file with metadata header |
+
+### Write (`/write/mcp`)
+
+| Tool | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `update_file` | Update a single context file with optimistic version checking |
+| `set_project_tags` | Replace all metadata tags for a project |
+| `sync_to_project` | Write CONTEXT.MD as AGENTS.md + symlinks to project root |
+
+## Workflow: Reading Context
+
+```
+1. get_client_guide()                   → read the locked client guide first
+2. list_projects()                       → find the project slug
+3. get_project_context(project_id)       → read compiled context
+   or list_files() + get_file()         → read individual files
+```
+
+The compiled view returns all files concatenated with `## FILENAME` headers and a metadata block at the top.
+
+## Workflow: Updating Context
+
+```
+1. get_file(project_id, file_path)   → get current content + version
+2. update_file(project_id, file_path, content, base_version)
+   → base_version must match current version (optimistic locking)
+   → returns {"ok": true, "version": N+1} or {"ok": false, "error": "version_conflict"}
+3. On conflict: re-read, merge, retry
+```
+
+### What to Update
+
+- **CONTEXT.MD** — canonical project overview (synced as AGENTS.md to repos)
+- **DECISIONS.MD** — architecture decisions, rationale
+- **RUNBOOKS.MD** — deploy, troubleshoot, operate procedures
+- **PROMPTS.MD** — project-specific prompts for different harnesses
+- **GLOSSARY.MD** — project-specific terms, acronyms
+
+### What NOT to Put in Context
+
+- Session progress logs (use session_search or audit trail)
+- Temporary TODO state
+- Single-session debugging notes
+- Secrets, keys, tokens
+
+## Locked Files
+
+| File | Protection |
+|------|-----------|
+| `CONTEXT.MD` | Cannot delete — canonical synced file |
+| `LLM-CLIENT.MD` | Cannot update or delete — locked client guide |
+
+Both return `403 cannot_update_locked` on PUT and `400 cannot_delete_context` on DELETE.
+
+## Discipline
+
+1. **Call `get_client_guide()` first** in every session
+2. **Read context at the start of every session** for the project you're working on
+3. **Update context immediately** when a durable fact changes — not "next session"
+4. **Use `base_version`** to avoid overwriting concurrent edits
+5. **Don't put session progress in project context** — that's what session history is for
+
+## Error Handling
+
+| Error | Meaning | Action |
+|-------|---------|--------|
+| `version_conflict` | Someone else updated the file | Re-read, merge, retry with new `base_version` |
+| `not_found` | Project or file doesn't exist | Check slug spelling; create project via Web UI |
+| `invalid_grant` | OAuth token expired or wrong scope | Refresh token or re-authorize with correct scope |
+| `forbidden` | Wrong endpoint for the tool | Write tools only on `/write/mcp`; read tools on `/readonly/mcp` |
+| `cannot_delete_context` | Tried to delete CONTEXT.MD or LLM-CLIENT.MD | Protected file — update content instead |
+| `cannot_update_locked` | Tried to update LLM-CLIENT.MD | Locked guide — ask admin to update via Web UI |
+
+## Verification Checklist
