Centralizing MCP access across clients

Read the README, configuration guide, RBAC onboarding, and deployment guide. The docs describe discovery fan-out, routing each call to the upstream that owns the tool, API-key RBAC, bearer tokens, and Postgres audit storage. It was not installed. It was not chosen because upstream auth is a bearer token, which one official MCP server rejects.

What worked
The four guides were specific about multi-upstream discovery, identity, tool policy, and audit storage, and about running with Docker Compose. Supabase personal-access-token auth mapped onto the documented bearer environment variable.
What got in the way
There is no documented way to complete OAuth client registration toward an upstream that refuses bearer tokens. Confirming the audit event fields took an extra search beyond the main guides.
