Conventions

• ample deploy and ample up are synchronous; exit code 0 is live, 1 failed, 2 blocked on a required action. Never poll by re-running.
• Every MCP tool takes an execution_key; reusing it after a disconnect retrieves the result instead of replaying the mutation.
• Errors are JSON objects {"error":{"code":"...","message":"..."}}.
• Every HTML page has a Markdown alternate: append .md or send Accept: text/markdown.
