        The control plane and generator are open. Bring your own Postgres, Redis, Docker host and
        Anthropic API key. Production uses Hetzner + Coolify + Traefik; the seams are the same.

        The intended production setup is a Hetzner AX52 running Coolify, Traefik for wildcard SSL
        on <Mono>*.mcp.yourdomain.com</Mono>, and Cloudflare for DNS+DDoS. The runner-deploy
        adapter is the only environment-specific seam — swap the Docker-CLI implementation in
        <Mono>apps/generator/src/lib/deploy.ts</Mono> for the Coolify HTTP API.
