  GRIN publishes no first-party client libraries. npm and PyPI were searched and
  the obvious candidate names probed directly; the two 200s are both unrelated
  third-party projects and are recorded below as explicit NEGATIVE matches so a
  later pass does not re-adopt them. There is also no GRIN GitHub organisation —
  github.com/grin-co resolves to an empty personal User account with 0 public
  repositories, and no other org on GitHub named grin belongs to this company.
  Consistent with that, the Gia MCP server is distribution-free: it is a hosted
  remote endpoint (https://mcp.grin.co/mcp) configured from the GRIN app's
  integrations settings, with no npx package, no install command and nothing to
  version — see mcp/grin-mcp.yml.
