Deployment

Development

Each component has its own package.json:

1. RC-API — install deps, configure .env, start dev server (port per project config).
2. ReCloud_app — build MCP bundle; tray or Cursor points node at server_workflow.js.
3. Tray — Electron or Tauri dev scripts; ensure mcp_server_dist (or symlink/copy from ReCloud_app dist) matches what mcp.json references.

There is no canonical Docker Compose in the reference rc-book tree—do not rely on copy-paste AWS/GCP YAML from older docs unless you added it yourself.

Production-ish desktop

• Package tray (AppImage, deb, rpm, etc.) with bundle.resources (Tauri) or equivalent so mcp_server_dist and tray icons ship beside the binary.
• mcp.json must use absolute paths to the bundled server_workflow.js.

RC-API production

Standard Node guidance: process manager, secrets via env, TLS if exposed beyond localhost, backups if you add databases.

Compatibility

Document which commit/tag of RC-API matches which MCP bundle and tray build when you cut releases.
