Found in continuous integration, deployment or infrastructure files, or in a neighbouring package of the same monorepo. None of this is installed when you add the server: it describes how the project is built and released.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: SPIKES_TOKEN (Bearer token for the hosted Spikes API. Required only when using --remote mode against spikes.sh. Local mode reads .spikes/feedback.jsonl and needs no token.), SPIKES_API_URL (Override the Spikes API base URL. Defaults to https://spikes.sh/api. Useful for self-hosted Spikes workers.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
