 This crate holds only the *music* part of the agent. The ACP server, session/turn loop, approval, workspace tools (`read_file`, `write_file`, `run_command`, ...), terminal UI and MCP layer all come from the Onde Agent Platform crates (`ed-acp`, `ed-acp-tui`, `ed-mcp`, from the `onde-ed` workspace). Look there for anything protocol- or session-related; the README says it is checked out next to this repo.
 
-- `src/profile.rs`: `SplitFire` implements `ed_acp::Profile`. It is the single wiring point: identity (`INFO`, env prefix `SPLITFIRE`), system prompt, toolsets (`WorkspaceTools` + `MusicTools`), slash commands, and the lazily started built-in `demucs --mcp` server (`SharedServer`; a client-supplied MCP server named `demucs` wins).
+- `src/profile.rs`: `SplitFire` implements `ed_acp::Profile`. It is the single wiring point: identity (`INFO`, env prefix `SPLITFIRE`), system prompt, toolsets (`WorkspaceTools` + `MusicTools`), slash commands, and the lazily started built-in `demucs --mcp` server (`SharedServer`; a client-supplied MCP server named `demucs` wins). Embedding apps use that: the separator passes its own `--mcp` server, and KaroKowe Jam and KaroKowe Karaoke wrap `SplitFire` and return no built-in servers.
 - `src/prompt.rs`: system prompt and slash commands (`/analyze`, `/chords`, `/practice`, `/stems` only when separation is available).
 - `src/tools/`: `MusicTools` is one `Toolset` exposing six `theory_*` tools, `analyze_audio` and `list_separations`. All are read-only and never prompt for approval. New tools need an entry in `definitions()`, `handles()` and `describe()`.
 - `src/theory/` (pitch, interval, scale, chord, key, tempo) and `src/audio/` (symphonia decode, loudness/tempo/key analysis) are the pure computation behind the tools. The design principle is that the model calls these instead of recalling answers, so results must be exact (correct enharmonic spelling, e.g. C# major has E# and B#).
