Add `altimate-code mcp serve`, a stdio MCP server that lets any MCP client (e.g. Claude Code) call altimate-code's data tools directly while the client's own model does the reasoning. The server never calls a model. - Exposes `warehouse_list`, `schema_inspect`, `sql_execute`, `sql_check` and `sql_materialize`, reusing the existing implementations with short tool descriptions. - Read-only by default: the `sql_execute_write` permission is denied unless `--allow-write` is passed; reads are auto-allowed. - Binds a local session at start-up so results do not carry the workspace-routing notice; forwards MCP cancellation to tool calls; `sql_materialize` keeps a session-local scratch warehouse. - Spill hints tell MCP clients to open the spill path with any file reader instead of naming the agent-only `read` tool. - `--connections <file>` or normal connection discovery; stdout carries only MCP protocol messages; no telemetry start-up.

Review comments at @packages/opencode/src/altimate/mcp-server/adapter.ts:
- Around line 33-40: Update the truncation writer in the adapter to lazily
create a unique per-session spill directory under the temporary directory using
a secure temporary-directory API, then write result files there. Update the
adapter’s close() method to remove that directory recursively after releasing
session resources, ensuring cleanup occurs when no spill directory was created
as well.
Review comments at @packages/opencode/src/altimate/mcp-server/server.ts:
- Around line 43-47: Update the `inputSchema` mapping in the adapter so
`sql_execute`’s `full_text_columns` description does not direct MCP clients to a
nonexistent `read` tool; make the recovery guidance client-neutral and
consistent with the runtime spill hint.
Review comments at @packages/opencode/src/index.ts:
- Line 139: Move the `opts.printLogs` handling in the middleware before the
early return for `mcp serve`, so `OPENCODE_PRINT_LOGS` is set for that command.
Leave the `opts.logLevel` handling unchanged.

- Without `--allow-write`, every source query from the MCP tools requests database-enforced read-only where the engine supports it (Postgres read-only transaction, SQLite `query_only`, DuckDB read-only open). Engines without database-level read-only are still served, but `warehouse_list`, a stderr notice at start-up and the docs say plainly that stored functions with side effects are not blocked and a read-only database user is recommended. - Spill output goes to a private per-process directory that is removed when the server closes, through the shared truncation service (user output limits and failure wording preserved). - MCP-facing text names only the exposed tools: no `lineage_check` tip from `schema_inspect`, and client-neutral `full_text_columns` guidance. - `--connections` uses the registry's path resolution and rejects the reserved `scratch` name at start-up; docs state the file replaces discovery. `--print-logs`/`--log-level` now apply to `mcp serve`. - Tests: in-process MCP server tests need real drivers, so they run in a dedicated CI step (`ALTIMATE_MCP_E2E=1`); the allow-write read-back and middleware-skip regressions now fail when the behaviour regresses.

Run the MCP E2E tests for MCP changes.
The driver-e2e job runs only when needs.changes.outputs.drivers == 'true'. The drivers filter does not include the MCP server source or test paths. A change limited to those paths can skip the only step that sets ALTIMATE_MCP_E2E=1, so the MCP-specific tests remain skipped.
Add the MCP paths to the drivers filter, or move this step to a job that runs for packages/opencode changes.

WARNING: driver-e2e path filters omit MCP server paths, so PRs touching only mcp-server skip server.test.ts entirely
server.test.ts gates all 15 tests on ALTIMATE_MCP_E2E === "1" (test/altimate/mcp-server/server.test.ts:18), so the main typescript job skips them. The driver-e2e job only runs when needs.changes.outputs.drivers == 'true', and the drivers path filter (ci.yml:89-112) does not include packages/opencode/src/altimate/mcp-server/** or packages/opencode/test/altimate/mcp-server/**. As noted at ci.yml:97-100 for duckdb-open-e2e.test.ts, add those paths to the drivers filter so PRs modifying only MCP server files still run server.test.ts.

WARNING: Nested altimate_change markers inside makeLayer break flat marker parsers in bridge-merge.ts and analyze.ts
Opening // altimate_change start on line 57 and closing on line 164 wraps two existing marker blocks (lines 72–92 and lines 113–149). While computeMarkedLines tracks nesting depth, extractMarkerBlocks in script/upstream/bridge-merge.ts:122-161 and findMarkers in script/upstream/analyze.ts:503-520 use a flat boolean state—pairing line 57's start with line 92's inner end and leaving lines 93–112 and 150–164 unmarked during bridge merges. Remove the inner altimate_change start/end markers (keeping the upstream_fix: comment text) so the block is not nested.

WARNING: outputLimits ignores documented ALTIMATE_CLI_* env aliases and reverses .json vs .jsonc precedence
Config.Service (src/config/config.ts:545-601, src/config/paths.ts:54-56) resolves Flag.OPENCODE_CONFIG, Flag.OPENCODE_DISABLE_PROJECT_CONFIG, Flag.OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR, and env("OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT") (which read ALTIMATE_CLI_CONFIG* first), and loads ["altimate-code.json", "altimate-code.jsonc", "opencode.json", "opencode.jsonc"] so .jsonc overrides .json in the same directory. Here, reading process.env.OPENCODE_* directly ignores ALTIMATE_CLI_* variables, and lines 35 and 42 load .jsonc before .json so .json overwrites .jsonc. Additionally, readFile on line 18 only catches ENOENT, so an unreadable ancestor directory (EACCES/EPERM) or directory collision (EISDIR/ENOTDIR) while walking up to / will throw and abort server startup.

Claude Code includes MCP server instructions in the model context, so the method (profile before choosing keys, compute in the database, materialize for cross-connection joins, sql_check, report only requested values) now reaches the model without relying on a skill. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…`; default analyst effort to high - `answer_commit` takes an optional `asked` list (the requested items, in order). With more than one item, every item must map to its own non-empty field or `rows` column; otherwise the call is rejected with the missing items named. At most two such rejections per user turn, then accepted. Filler values (`[]`, `""`, `null`) are ignored; calls without `asked` behave as before. - Committed numbers are compared with numbers in this session's earlier tool output and the user's request, allowing rounding, truncation and x100 / /100 conversions. An unsourced number gets one warning-style rejection per turn; the next commit is accepted. Skipped when no SQL tool has produced output and for integers up to 10. - Rejection counts come from the turn's `answer_commit` error parts in `Tool.Context.messages`, so no extra session state is kept. - `readings` description and the analyst prompt ask for one entry naming the chosen and rejected reading when the wording is ambiguous; readings stay in metadata only. - The analyst requests `high` reasoning effort (adaptive thinking, summarized display) on adaptive-thinking models when no variant or agent effort option is set. `ALTIMATE_ANALYST_EFFORT` selects another level or `off`. The run-budget effort downgrade still applies afterwards. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

… structured output
Claude Code shows the model `structuredContent` in place of the text content, so after
an accepted commit the model saw `{"answer":"..."}` instead of `FINAL ANSWER: ...` and
went on to restate the answer in prose, which can drop requested items. Drops the
`outputSchema` and `structuredContent` added for `answer_commit`; the text result is
unchanged. The test now asserts that neither is returned.

The test now spawns the server with `Bun.spawn` and speaks newline-delimited JSON-RPC itself; cases and assertions are unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`answer_commit` over MCP now returns the basis as context above an answer-only FINAL ANSWER line (rendered as `answer_only` would), so a client that copies the FINAL ANSWER text never includes the explanation. Callers that already set `answer_only` get the answer line alone. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
This reverts commit 0361529.
… one-time requested-items check
- `answer_commit` over MCP takes the user's question verbatim as an MCP-only `request` argument (the server never sees the user message); the adapter strips it before the strict parser.
- A one-time conjunction check rejects a `fields` commit whose field count is below the number of items the request asks for ("the X and its Y"); an unchanged recommit is accepted.
- The FINAL ANSWER line drops the basis (basis rendered above it) only for a complete commit: a `rows` commit, or a `fields` commit covering every requested item. Under-asked commits keep the previous rendering, so a second item named only in the basis is not lost.
- Tests: final-answer rendering branches, MCP server conjunction path, detector unit tests.

Type of change
What does this PR do?
There are two ways to get altimate-code's data tools into another agent today, and both are poor fits:
altimate-code run. That pays for a second model and replaces the client's own reasoning loop.This PR adds
altimate-code mcp serve, a stdio MCP server. Any MCP client, such as Claude Code, can call the data tools directly while its own model does the reasoning. The server never calls a model, so an MCP client's subscription covers the whole LLM cost.What it exposes: five data tools, reusing the existing implementations, each with a short description:
warehouse_listschema_inspectsql_executesql_checksql_materializeAdded since the first revision:
answer_commit(MCP only). The client's model commits its final answer through this tool. It runs the same requested-item and number-provenance checks as the native analyst, and returns aFINAL ANSWER:line for the model to reply with. It returns plain text only: Claude Code showsstructuredContentto the model in place of the text, and the model then rewrote the answer as prose.instructions: the analyst method, 723 characters, sent in the initialize response.analyzeprompt: interactive clients show it as a slash command.resource_link: whensql_executespills a large result to a file, the result also carries a link to that file.Behaviour:

Reads are auto-allowed.sql_materializestill requires a read-only source query and writes only to the server session's temporaryscratchwarehouse, which is removed on exit.readtool. This applies only on the MCP path, through a context flag, so normal agent output is unchanged.--connections <file>points at a connections file; without it, the server uses normal connection discovery.mcp serveonly.

New SQL execution surface over MCP with read-only defaults and permission gating, but it reuses core query paths and misconfiguration or
--allow-writecould allow mutations against configured warehouses.Overview
Adds
altimate-code mcp serve, a stdio MCP server so external MCP clients can call Altimate’s five warehouse tools (warehouse_list,schema_inspect,sql_execute,sql_check,sql_materialize) without starting an agent or calling a model. A thin adapter wires the existing tool implementations with a local session, MCP-specific permissions, and client-neutral truncation/spill hints.Safety and behavior: Source SQL writes are denied unless
--allow-write; otherwise reads propagateforceReadOnlythrough dispatch so Postgres/SQLite/DuckDB get database-level protection, with stderr/warehouse_listcaveats for classification-only engines. Optional--connectionsloads an isolated connections file viaRegistry.loadFile. Stdio keeps protocol on stdout; CLI middleware (telemetry/heap) is skipped formcp serve. Scratch materialization and private spill directories are torn down on shutdown; MCP abort signals cancel in-flight queries.Supporting changes:

Row counts are local SQLite/DuckDB only (at most 50 tables under a 3-second budget); remote engines show catalog estimates, neverCOUNT(*).warehouse_listadds local tables with columns and a one-row sample (SQLite and local DuckDB base tables only), bounded by table budgets and a 4-second deadline; remote connections run no queries.sql_executeaccepts up to 8 read-only queries per call as one labeled block each with a shared byte/line budget andfull_text_columnsforwarded per query; a failing item does not stop the rest.
