claude-code over NATS: licence events, a token by request, a login pushed to the manager, MCP servers registered per node or mesh-wide

Events carry what happened and no secret; tokens travel on requests (design 32 §10). The manager's
licence.rotated/switched events make the module ask anthropic-licence-manager.current; at start it
asks once to catch up. A refresh token appearing in the credentials file is a login: it is pushed to
the manager's adopt at once, sealed to the manager's key — the one time a refresh token travels. A
switch replaces the old licence's grant whole, removes the API key and its helper, and rewrites
oauthAccount in ~/.claude.json. New tools register and unregister MCP servers on this node, or with
nodes: all / a list via an mcp.registered event every node consumes; called for one node, the
answer names the other nodes running claude-code. 26 tests.

## Over NATS
Everything between this module and the rest of the mesh is NATS, in two kinds: an **event** says that
something happened and carries no secret, because a stream keeps it; a **request** carries a token,
because nothing keeps it (hq design 32 §10).
| what | how |
|---|---|
| the licence manager rotated a licence, or switched this node | its `licence.rotated` / `licence.switched` event; this module then asks `anthropic-licence-manager.current` for its token, sealed to the key it sends |
| this node starts | it asks `current` once, so a node that was off catches up |
| a person ran `/login` here | the credentials file gains a refresh token this module never writes; it asks `anthropic-licence-manager.adopt` at once with the grant sealed to the manager's key — the one time a refresh token travels, because the login made the manager's stale |
| an MCP server registered for more nodes than this one | an `mcp.registered` / `mcp.unregistered` event every node's claude-code consumes; a node that was off takes it when it is back |
## Tools
`claude_code_status`, `claude_code_render`, `claude_code_pull`, `claude_code_mcp_list`,
`claude_code_mcp_register` (this node by default; `nodes: "all"` or a list for more — called for this
node alone, its answer names the other nodes running claude-code), `claude_code_mcp_unregister`.
## Settings
Per node or for the whole mesh, through `mesh-controller.settings module=claude-code`:
- `role` — what this node is, in a few words; shown to every session.
- `mcp_servers` — extra tool servers, keyed by name, in the vendor's `.mcp.json` entry shape
- `mcp_servers` — extra tool servers, set by the operator for the mesh or a node, beside the ones
registered through the tools; keyed by name, in the vendor's `.mcp.json` entry shape
(`{"type":"http","url":…}` or `{"type":"stdio","command":…,"args":[…]}`). The name `mesh` is the
module's own and cannot be set. Put a person's own servers here, or they stop loading.
