+// boocode-codecontext-shim — wraps codecontext's stdio MCP server with an
+// HTTP/JSON facade so the BooCode Node server can call codecontext over the
+// container network instead of speaking MCP directly. One process per
+// container, holds a single codecontext child via os/exec; concurrent HTTP
+// requests are serialized onto the child because codecontext's internal
+// CodeContextMCPServer.graph swaps per target_dir (see recon report
+// 2026-05-21).
+//
+// MCP framing is newline-delimited JSON (NDJSON), not LSP-style
+// Content-Length — per the MCP stdio transport spec:
+// https://spec.modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/server/transports
+//
