# Iolaus setup Use this package with an authenticated Iolaus installation. The bundled endpoint is for local development at `http://127.0.0.1:5173/api/mcp`. For a self-hosted or shared Iolaus service, copy this package and change only `mcp.json` to that deployment's HTTPS `/api/mcp` URL. Authenticate with the Iolaus deployment's normal session flow; do not put credentials in this package. Private installs use their configured administrative workspace. Shared hosted deployments require the signed-in account's active tenant membership, role, and server-verified profile; this package cannot select or access another account's workspace. Open the opportunity board to browse the signed-in workspace. Inspect an opportunity before preparing its application workspace. Final approval and submission are available only on Iolaus's dedicated authenticated review page. Secure MCP Tunnel testing is an operator-controlled developer-mode step. It is pending until its control-plane key, workspace association, and host login are available; no directory publication or production deployment is part of this package setup.
