 It keeps the app-building experience, but for matched UiPath requests it produces a UiPath coded app instead of a Sites-hosted app. Build, package, publish, and deploy are handled through the standard `uipath-coded-apps` workflow and `uip codedapp`.
 
+This branch includes an experimental bundled MCP server for the setup input gate. When the Codex runtime supports MCP form elicitation, the plugin can collect app type, environment, app name, client ID, organization, tenant, and folder in a structured form before generation starts. If the runtime does not support the form, the skill falls back to normal Codex chat input.

 ## What It Does
 
 - Routes `@UiPath Sites` and matched `@Sites` prompts into UiPath coded-app generation.
+- Provides an optional MCP form input gate for required UiPath setup values.
 - Keeps the final deployment target as UiPath, not Sites hosting.
 - Applies frontend-design guidance for visual polish only.
 - Ensures the UiPath CLI and UiPath Codex skills are available at session start.

 ## Ownership
 
 - UiPath Sites owns routing, Sites-hosting suppression, and the visual companion layer.
+- The bundled MCP server owns optional structured setup input collection only.
 - `uipath-coded-apps` owns coded-app structure, SDK usage, auth/config, scopes, service-specific references, runtime data handling, functional UI behavior, build, pack, publish, and deploy.
 - `frontend-design-overrides.md` owns visual presentation only and must not redefine functional UI mechanics.
