This one needs environment variables set before it will start: WORKFLOWS_DIR (Absolute or relative path to the workflows root directory.), GLOBAL_INSTRUCTIONS_PATH (Path to the global instructions markdown file. Derives from WORKFLOWS_DIR when not set.), WATCHER_DEBOUNCE_MS (Milliseconds to debounce filesystem change events before rebuilding the index.), MCP_HTTP_HOST (The hostname for the HTTP server.), MCP_HTTP_PORT (The port to run the HTTP server on.), MCP_HTTP_ENDPOINT_PATH (The endpoint path for the MCP server.), MCP_AUTH_MODE (Authentication mode to use: 'none', 'jwt', or 'oauth'.), MCP_LOG_LEVEL (Sets the minimum log level for output (e.g., 'debug', 'info', 'warn').). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
